Classic Cuts: Daphnis and Chloe

Romantic and historical play by the Greek novelist Longus, adapted for Oran Mor by Hattie Naylor.

"The story is set on the isle of Lesbos during the 2nd century AD, where the writer lived. Its style is romantic and pastoral; in Hattie Naylor's version, the shepherd and shepherdess named in the title bring sex and 21st century human interest to this classic rural tale."
