Orpheus
Jules Young
'Orpheus' was performed at Durham Fringe and explores the Greek myth as told by Orpheus’ best man. A look at love, loss and friendship from antiquity to today. Jules was one of the early participants and kindly worked with me on his piece.
His photos are particularly interesting because things didn’t go quite right for him. There was a technical glitch in some of the audio - not Jules’ fault at all - but he rolled with it and styled it out like the consummate pro he is. The audience barely noticed - if at all. Perhaps because of that, where I believe most of the after photos through the project show a release of some kind, it seems Jules’ reveal a layer of nuance on top of that which doesn’t really appear elsewhere in the project.
