Ruhl's "Eurydice" is a luminous reimagining of this myth through the eyes of Eurydice. We tumble with Eurydice like Alice down into an eerie Wonderland underworld where she is reunited with her father. He must teach her language, since she has been stripped of all her memories. Ruhl's Hades is also populated with a fantastical chorus of Stones and a tricycle-riding Lord of the Underworld.
