Ovid’s timeless poem Metamorphoses leaps to stunning life in Mary Zimmerman’s Tony-nominated adaptation. Set in and around a central onstage pool of water that provides the hub of each of Metamorphoses’ many vignettes, Zimmerman’s bold retelling juxtaposes antiquity and modernity in an exploration of the power of theater across centuries. UMD Assistant Professor KenYatta Rogers directs this production, celebrating the persistence of narrative in the face of inevitable change.

Tickets: $25 or $10 student/youth. Click here.

Things Hidden Since the Foundation of the World at Clarice Smith, Nov 14-15

Things Hidden Since the Foundation of the World at Clarice Smith, Nov 14-15

The Javaad Alipoor Company: Things Hidden Since the Foundation of the World
November 14 & 15, 2024 • 8PM

Venue: Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center.

Fereydoun Farrokhzad is invisible to everyone apart from, mostly, Iranians, because nobody apart from them ever has to think about him.

In 1992, the Iranian pop sensation and refugee Fereydoun Farrokhzad, sometimes called Iran’s Tom Jones, was found brutally murdered in his home in Germany, only six months after playing to sold-out audiences at London’s Royal Albert Hall. The case was never solved.

This witty, fast-paced and cutting-edge production cuts to the heart of the biggest true crime case that you have never heard of. An investigation into both an iconic murder and an investigation into the nature of the investigation itself.

Part free-wheeling comic lecture, part podcast and part play and accompanied by live music, Things Hidden is a thrilling ride down the rabbit hole of Wikipedia and murder mystery podcasts, sorting through the tangle of information available online in a post-colonial world to reveal the limits of the search engines in solving a decades-old cold case.

Things Hidden builds on the success of Rich Kids: A History of Shopping Malls in Tehran which made its US debut at Public Theatre’s Under the Radar Festival in 2021, before playing at Sundance Film Festival and being selected as one of Helen Shaw’s “Best Theatre of 2021” in Vulture Magazine.
