THE RECIPROCITY OF PERSEPHONE

DECEMBER 2019 AT PRIVATE RESIDENCE

Based on the classic Greek myth of a similar title, The Reciprocity of Persephone aims to give the Queen of the Underworld a little more agency in this modern, feminist re-telling. This devised piece of theatre will tell the story of the young Goddess Persephone living with her fiercely loving and overprotective mother Demeter, Goddess of agriculture and harvest. When Hades, God of the Underworld casts a gaze on Persephone there is nothing left to do except…strike up a conversation with her and invite her home. Eventually Persephone is left with a choice to make; stay with her Mother and the only home she has ever known or go off with a person that could give her a Realm unlike anything else.
