Zimmerman, best known for her Tony Award-winning Ovid's
Metamorphoses, has also adapted The Odyssey and
Argonautika, recently seen at Washington's Shakespeare
Theater.
Composer Kevin Clark, who received his master's degree from
Peabody last month, has created an original musical score for
this production. The cast, led by Peabody graduate Kateri
Chambers as Scheherazade, includes Peabody musicians Anna
