In the story of Orpheus and Eurydice, Eurydice is

In the story of Orpheus and Eurydice, Eurydice is stung by a serpent and dies. Orpheus follows her into Hades, then promises to lead her back but not look at her. He fails. She dies all over again.

Normally, since Eurydice is dead from the outset, Orpheus has the lion’s share of the story, even more so since he is famed as the world’s greatest musician.

It’s a narrative that’s continued to tease the imagination of creative artists all over the world.

In Opera Queensland/Circa’s production of Gluck’s Orpheus and Eurydice, for instance, Orpheus is seen in an insane asylum grappling with the loss of his beloved, but in American playwright Sarah Ruhl’s play Eurydice, now staged by Amy Kowalczuk at The Mill Theatre, the ancient myth is shown from the female perspective.

Evie Hudson is a woman with amnesia, who forgets the last 13 years. Piecing her life back together, she navigates the harsh realities of coercive control.

Evie is the leading character in local author @emmagreyauthor's second novel Pictures of You.

Her debut book, The Last Love Note, sold more than 100,000 books worldwide within a few months of being published last year.

“I think that using amnesia really helped [show the effects of coercive control] because she had that sense of being completely lost in her own life,” Emma says of her new work of fiction.

It’s the beginning of the summer fruiting trees,

It’s the beginning of the summer fruiting trees, such as the stone fruits, nuts and mulberries, says gardening columnist JACKIE WARBURTON.

The mulberry is a fast-growing tree that fruits within its first few years and grows well in our climate.

Mulberries are deciduous and have buttery yellow leaves in autumn. It can be used as a feature tree in a weeping form or as a quick-growing shade tree.

It fruits on new growth, so pruning to keep it in shape needs to be done after harvesting and when the weather is still warm. This will maximise fruiting capacity the following year.

You can fairly bet that when Queanbeyan Palerang Regional Council embarked on building its new headquarters in Crawford Street, it wasn’t expecting to have Shakespeare on site, but director of @theqqueanbeyan Jordan Best is taking care of that oversight with her coming production of A Midsummer Night’s Dream.

In what will also serve as the effective unveiling of the newly-landscaped Aunty Louise Brown Park directly outside The Q, she will stage a play beloved of even the most ardent Shakespeare-haters.

There is already a theatrical aspect to the park, with a slightly raised auditorium. But there’ll only be one set piece, a hammock and the actors will enter from all over the place. There will be no lights, the show will finish just as it’s getting dark.
