“Cupid And Psyche” at New Jersey Repertory Company

"Love is like milking a centaur. It's a dangerous game," observes the befuddled Mercury in Cupid and Psyche, a fabulously funny retelling of the famous love story from Greek mythology. Set on a modernish Mount Olympus where gods participate in such daily activities as wet toga contests, fawn tossing, and centaur races, Cupid and Psyche is a comic tale of forbidden love, a coming-of-age story, much in the tradition of The Fantasticks.
