Baltimore County, MD (Feb. 14, 2026) — Community College of Baltimore County Performing Arts presents 'Eurydice' by Sarah Ruhl, March 12 - 16 in the F. Scott Black Theatre, at CCBC Essex, 7201 Rossville Blvd.

Sarah Ruhl adapts the classic Greek story with a focus on its heroine in this powerful play about grief, family and the importance of letting go. When tragedy takes Eurydice to the underworld on the day of her wedding to Orpheus, she reunites with her late father and builds a new home there. But as Orpheus searches for a way to reach her, Eurydice faces the challenge of holding onto her memories in a place designed to forget.

Guest director Bo Frazier is an artist-in-residence at Baltimore Center Stage and creator of Trans History Project, a multimedia initiative amplifying transgender histories and voices. A director and educator, Frazier brings a community-centered and contemporary perspective to CCBC’s production of Eurydice.

  • March 13, 14 at 7 p.m.
  • March 15 at 3 p.m. (ASL interpreted)
  • March 16 at 10 a.m.

In addition to Frazier, CCBC’s production 'Eurydice' is directed by Taylor Fruhling as assistant director. Scenic and lighting design are by Terri Raulie, costume design by Stephanie Parks, costume shop supervision by Madeline Baynard, and sound design and projections by MaeAnn Ross, with Cicada Naydan as assistant sound designer. Victor Scigala is the stage manager, and Breanna Wilson is the assistant stage manager.
