Ted Hughes's Tales from Ovid
Adapted by Tim Supple and Simon Reade
Directed by Kathleen Duborg
November 2-9, 2018
Douglas College Studio Theatre

Ovid's tales, which he wrote around 1 BCE, became Metamorphoses, a literary conduit for Chaucer, Shakespeare, and more recently, Marvel comics. This adaptation, itself adapted from a version by the English poet Ted Hughes, is a piece of theatre that plays with transformation and aspiration and shows what happens when the mythic plane is exposed to human chaos.
