When the COVID-19 shutdown came in 2020, many plans were put on hold, some never to return. In the case of ÓÅÃÛ´«Ã½ College’s production of "Metamorphoses," it was just a matter of timing. The ambitious theatrical presentation debuts this week at the Simonsen Outdoor Theatre.
The show by Mary Zimmerman has a special place in director Cody Ganger's heart as it was the last play she was working on before the shutdown in 2020.
