Orpheus in the Underworld

Orpheus in the Underworld

6 | 1974-02-07 | Comedy Drama Fantasy Music

This musical comedy based on an opera by Jacques Offenbach incorporates a twist on the classic Greek myth: Orpheus, a music teacher at a girls’ school in the ancient Greek city of Thebes, actually does not miss his wife Eurydice that much – until the gods and Offenbach himself pressure him to retrieve her from Hades.
