Medea is a fitting finale - her controversial story has been the mythic template for monstrous women of the popular imagination for centuries. Themes of obsessive love, desperation and motherhood will be tested in the intimate, brand new space of The Gallery on The Corner in Tooting Bec.
With a raw, contemporary text by Wendy Haines and an all-female cast, By Jove will continue their signature provocative and original work adapting myth that challenges the assumptions we make about women and their actions. The production will star SJ Brady, Sinead Costelloe and Rosa Whicker as Medea tries to communicate herself to a room of strangers. Abandoned by her husband for another woman and left with the prospect of destitution, Medea drives herself to a shocking act of violence.
Founded in 2011, By Jove are a socialist-feminist performance ensemble - they use stories of the past to make theatre for today. Previous shows include Margaret of Anjou (2016), Here She Comes (2017) and the critically acclaimed Pride & Prejudice: The Panto (2012-15).
