The ultimate revenge for the ultimate betrayal. The myth of Medea has gripped audiences since it was first staged by Euripides 2400 year
n Asian sorceress exiled in the Greek city of Corinth, when Medea is callously betrayed by her husband, Jason, she uses her powers of magic and prophecy to exact the worst revenge imaginable. First dramatised by Euripides in 431BC, this ancient myth pursues the themes of love and loss, superstition and piety, loyalty and hatred to a terrifying conclusion. But Medea’s story isn’t finished yet…
Nick Thomas first presented his one-hour reworking of Medea at the OFS in 2004, when the Oxford Times called it ‘a first class modern tragedy’. This June Nick returns to direct a revival of his Medea, now paired with its sequel, Medos. This new play continues the story of Medea into her second exile in Athens and involves her in a different strand of tragic Greek myth that has never been dramatised before.
Why See This Show?
The ancient Greek myths are some of the most colourful and gripping stories ever told, driven by timeless human motivations and full of magic, suspense, and drama. This new production is a must for students of Greek literature and modern theatre alike, as Nick Thomas uses English dramatic verse to take the cast and audience on a thrilling ride into the depths of our cultural past.
Not suitable for children under 14.
