Whidbey Island Center for the Arts Presents METAMORPHOSES 6/10-25

Whidbey Island Center for the Arts, under the leadership of Executive Director Stacie Burgua, is proud to present Mary Zimmerman's Metamorphoses at WICA, 565 Camano Avenue, Langley, WA June 10 - 25, 2011.

Mary Zimmerman's "Metamorphoses" - a comic, elegant, and thoughtful adaptation of Ovid's myths -- explores the concept, possibilities and consequences of Change.

"... some myths keep human beings imprisoned in political and religious shackles. But other myths have redemptive power. They change the way we see our world and ourselves. Mary Zimmerman believes in the power of myth to transform, even to transform a swimming pool (on stage) into an ocean of the imagination. That's what she's done... with her acclaimed play 'Metamorphoses.' She's taken ancient Roman myths and brought them to life in the here and now." - Bill Moyers
"Metamorphoses" is directed by Robert W. Prosch and features Jennifer Bondelid, Morgan Bondelid, Katy Brooks, Anthony Caldwell, Max Cole-Takanikos, Gwen Jones, Kent Junge, Savannah True Randall, Tristan Steel, Katie Woodzick, and Dwight Zehm.

The Creative Team includes Jennifer Bondelid (Movement Coach), Ann Deacon (Lighting Design), Jason Dittmer (Scenic Design), Val Johnson (Costume Design), Jim Riley (Dramaturg), and Rob Scott (Stage Manager).

Ticket prices range from $12 to $16 and are available from www.WICAonline.com or 360.221.8268 - 800/638.7631.
