Eurydice is left behind. Often eclipsed by Orpheus's song, her tale is retold by Fran Díaz for the Leipzig Ballet. Eurydice is not a marginal figure, a muse, or a prisoner of a love for which she was destined. Instead, she is a woman in search of her way in a world that both shapes and denies her desires.

The myth of Eurydice unfolds in a society that is perpetually driven forward, yet frequently stagnates as it looks back. In a world where people become roles and relationships become expectations, Eurydice becomes a mirror for the questions of our time: What does freedom mean? And how do we escape a system that defines us before we can discover who we are?

With a keen sense of fable and timelessness, choreographer Fran Díaz creates a space for us to rediscover Eurydice as a symbol of resistance to getting lost in the maelstrom of precepts, dreams and desires that are not our own.
