Mary Zimmerman s "The Secret in the Wings "adapts a group of lesser-known fairy tales to create a theatrical work that sets their dark mystery against her signature wit and humor. The framing story concerns a child and the frightening babysitter with whom her parents leave her. As the babysitter reads from a book, the characters in each of the tales materialize, with each tale breaking off just at its bleakest moment before giving way to the next one. The central tale is told without interruption, after which each previous tale is successively resumed, with each looming disaster averted....

The Odyssey: A Play
ISBN: 9780810120938 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This dramatic adaptation of Homer's myth begins with a modern young woman who is struggling to understand Robert Fitzgerald's translation of The Odyssey. A classical muse appears, and the young woman becomes the goddess Athena--a tireless advocate for Odysseus in his struggle to get home.

Metamorphoses: A Play
ISBN: 9780810119789 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 104 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych (Dostawa w 2026 r.) This play is based on Ovid's 15-volume work of transformation myths. Positioned in and around a large pool on the stage, the characters enact Zimmerman's adaptations of Ovid's tales, juxtaposing the ancient and the contemporary in both language and image. The tone of the drama likewise echoes the themes of change and contrast, from the humour of Phaeton's therapy session to the tragedy of Midas and his daughter. The volume contains a production history, the play script, and, because the visual aspect of the play is important, photographs from some of its past productions.
