Ondine
2022
Edinburgh Fringe
Synopsis
Assistant director and producer
Impulsive, frank and filled with wonder, Ondine is a young water nymph drawn to the human world. One stormy night by the lake, she meets Hans, a knight-errant travelling through the nearby forest, and she immediately and violently falls in love with him. To free herself of the water world, Ondine makes a secret pact with the spirit of the lake, which ultimately brings about a tragic end.
“Ondine” is just as poetic, thought-provoking, and deeply touching as it is uniquely absurd! It’s full of extravagant characters, unhinged dialogues and random digressions. This play will shatter all expectations!

Press
“Cheynet and AD Agnes Perry-Robinson do a great job in bringing all the disparate elements together into a unified whole”
