This staging of Orfeo, presented in the final of RING AWARD 2025, reimagines the ancient myth within the confines of a small apartment. Orpheus, now an aging man, mourns the death of Eurydice. As grief consumes him, the borders between memory and reality dissolve: the apartment transforms into an underworld, the river Styx begins to flood the space, and echoes of the past return. In this intimate, surreal setting, Orfeo becomes a meditation on aging, loss, and the quiet vastness of loneliness.
The production was awarded the Dramaturgy Prize and the Province of Styria Prize at Ring Award 2025
