Eurydice

Love at first sight. The moment your eyes meet and everything changes. But behind that instant are a thousand others, people and places those eyes have seen that will always haunt you.

Based on Anouilh’s classic Eurydice, One Way Ticket is a new twist on the myth of Orpheus & Eurydice.

It’s a love story for the ages, but here we see them fall in love for the first time. A train station cafe is not a fertile ground for romance, but that is where our two lovers meet, thrown together by fate and Britain’s terrible train service.

Their new love leads them to run away from their former lives and loved ones, but too soon the bliss of their little hotel room is under threat from the ghosts of a past that refuses to leave them alone. When Eurydice disappears, Orpheus is given an ultimatum: how far is he willing to go to see Eurydice again?

Part rom-com, part surreal nightmare, Eurydice, One Way Ticket re-examines myth in a modern world; can true love still survive when everything is breaking down?
