Muze (Muse) is a rather free interpretation of the Orpheus myth.
An abandoned archive holds the personal life stories of thousands; in it, Orpheus is trying to recreate his own history with Euridice. He cuts and pastes and reorganises the existing archival order in a rather drastic way.
This doesn't go unnoticed. Orpheus will be forced to go through his own hell and face his own story.

Muze combines theatre, music and video in a very simbiotic way.
