Orpheus Descending

Orpheus Descending

American Theater Company
1909 W Byron Chicago

An overlooked masterpiece by an American master. Carmen Roman, one of Chicago theater's most treasured actors, makes a triumphant return to ATC as a shopkeeper trapped in a deadly marriage who is reborn as she takes up with a young musician in a small southern town. Sexy, lyrical, and haunting.
