What drives human behavior – not just the mundane and everyday, but the most extreme and dangerous?
About this Event

This production performs at the Theresa Lang Theatre 220 East 72nd Street between 2nd and 3rd Ave. All attendees, including students and staff, must check in at campus security at 72nd street before making your way to the theatre.

THERE IS NO LATE SEATING. YOU WILL NOT BE SEATED AFTER THE PERFORMANCE BEGINS.



“It has been said that the myth is a public dream, dreams are private myths. Unfortunately, we give our mythic side scant attention these days. As a result, a great deal escapes us and we no longer understand our own actions. So it remains important and salutary to speak not only of the rational and easily understood, but also of enigmatic things: the irrational and the ambiguous. To speak both privately and publicly.” (Mary Zimmerman, Metamorphoses)
What drives human behavior – not just the mundane and everyday, but the most extreme and dangerous? The Greeks and Romans of the ancient past looked to the Gods to explain the seemingly unexplainable – long before Freud or psychology or psychotherapy. Are we accountable? The myths of Ovid’s Metamorphoses, as depicted here by Mary Zimmerman’s more contemporary re-telling, connect human choice with God-sized consequences: we are left to examine our human accountability in the face of powers far beyond human control.-- Ellen Orenstein, director.


ACCESSIBILTY AND SEATING

There is a short staircase of 4 steps at the entrance. If you cannot navigate stairs, please inform security at the door and we will be happy to escort you to an alternate entrance with no stairs. For those with mobility challenges, please reserve the seats labelled "transfer seating"—these seats are closest to the theatre doors and have armrests that flip up to allow patrons to enter the seats more easily. If you or your guest have a wheelchair or large mobility device that cannot be exited, please reserve transfer seating, then email [email protected] to ensure the seat is removed before your arrival.


TICKET CHANGES AND REFUNDS

NO refunds are allowed except in cases of illness. All tickets may be transferred to another performance date by visiting your Eventbrite account and following the prompts to transfer your registration to a different event date, based on availability. If a performance is sold out, the tickets cannot be transferred. MMC Community tickets can be cancelled via your Evenbrite account.


NOTE ABOUT MMC COMMUNITY TICKETS:

Members of the Marymount community – students, faculty, staff, and alumni – are permitted one free ticket per production (not per performance). The Department of Theatre Arts reserves the right to cancel tickets from those members of our community that are found to be abusing this free ticket policy.
