Orpheus Dismembered
Clifton Way, Cambridge, CB1 7GX
Description
No remembering without forgetting
No rebirth without death
No ascent without descent
These are the mysteries.
Storyteller Ben Haggarty, and musician Jonah Brody, become guides to the dark places. Enter a subterranean dreamscape to meet Dionysus – God of Wine, born once from his mother and again from Zeus; Orpheus who can only find love through separation; Eurydice and Persephone eternally bound to the land of the dead; and Aphrodite scattering the seeds of chaos through which we must wade to find sense.
