Perseus & Andromeda
Both Sarah Ruhl and Jean Anouilh have written plays titled "Eurydice"; there is not to my knowledge a play called "Orpheus and Eurydice".
Orpheus and Eurydice.
Orpheus and Eurydice
Euridice lived in the Underworld.She was the wife of Orpheus, who tried to bring her back from the dead with his enchanting music.
In some versions of the myth, Eurydice and Orpheus did have children. They were said to have two sons named Musaeus and Linus, who inherited their father's musical talents.
The origin of the original ancient myth and its writer isn't known today.
Eurydice was the wife of Orpheus.
In the Greek myth, Orpheus's wife Eurydice dies, and he made a promise with Hades that if he brought Eurydice back, he is to never look back (at her). But Orpheus looks back and his wife was sent to the underworld again. In the story, A Few Notes For Orpheus, at the end of the story, it says his father did not look back. There's a new mentions of the names Eurydice and Orpheus throughout the story too.
Orpheus and Eurydice got married. Right after the wedding Orpheus had sex with Eurydice and went to Zeus and asked for forgiveness.
Eurydice is the wife of Orpheus. when Eurydice died, Orpheus went to the underworld to save her and bring her back home. Hades and his wife, Persephone, let him take Eurydice, but on one condition. Once they give her to him he must walk in front of her and must not look back at all to look at her until they leave the underworld or Eurydice will return immediately to the underworld forever, and Orpheus will fall to pieces. "Don't look back." Eurydice told him. But Orpheus turned around just to check if she was still there. Then Eurydice shed a tear and immediately returned to the underworld. "Goodbye forever" she says. Depressed, Orpheus walked away, shed a tear and fell to pieces.
The myth says that over the grave of Orpheus (the master musician and singer) the nightingale sings more sweetly than anywhere else.
