About Echo:
Echo is a retelling of The Greek Myth of Echo and Narcissus. A story of greed, pain, loss, and perseverance. Our retelling of Echo is done through an emphasis on the female experience, heightened text, and modern dance. At the crossroads of Shakespeare, classic Greek text, and Sarah Ruhl's poetry- you will find Echo.
Echo is a play about the choices women are faced with when their voices are taken away. The systems and behavior put in place to limit, harm, and degrade women are felt in multitudes across time and place.
While our country is suspended in a time of division and uncertainty, Echo reminds us of the importance of love, perseverance, and standing up for those whose voice is silenced.
