dc.description.abstractDAPHNE is a short solo-play depicting the final moments of Daphne, a nymph-turned-tree, as she faces down an advancing forest fire and considers what it means to be transformed against one’s will. The piece utilizes classical forms—familiar characters from myth, a traditional storytelling approach, expressive movement—to comment on the mythic scale of the Climate Crisis.
