METAMORPHOSES

''The gods are not altogether unkind.''

METAMORPHOSES Weaving a contemporary and frequently humorous sensibility through Ovid’s epic poem of mythology and human nature, Mary Zimmerman’s Metamorphoses transformed the Circle in the Square stage into a 27’ wide pool of water Ovid’s classic Roman myths of gods and goddesses, of love and despair, come to heartbreaking life.
