The Performing Arts at Oakton presents Cupid
& Psyche, a play based on a 2,000-year-old Greek
myth, Nov. 13-16 and Nov. 20-23, at Oakton Community College’s
Studio One, 1600 E. Golf Road, Des Plaines.
Written by Joseph Fisher, Cupid & Psyche is a tale of
love found – then lost – when Aphrodite’s jealousy
of the world’s most beautiful woman prompts her to send her
son Cupid to settle the score. The myth serves as the archetype for
countless stories throughout history.

Nov. 14 and 21; 8 p.m., Saturday, Nov. 15 and 22; 2 p.m., Sunday,
