Orpheus In the Underworld

Orpheus in the Underworld, was performed 13-15th February 2025, at the Watford Palace Theatre.

For the first time in Watford Palace Theatre history, ALGSS proudly presents Offenbach’s operetta “Orpheus in the Underworld”, the comic reimagining of the Orpheus myth. With a libretto by political satirist and comedian Rory Bremner, this production breathes new life into the classic tale.

Expect a delightful evening of satirical humour that critiques society while exploring themes of love, infidelity, and social pressure. The show is brought to life with lively melodies and features the iconic ‘Can-can’.

Don’t miss this fresh, modern twist on a timeless story!
