Set in a post-modern civil-war America, a-la Gilead, this one-act adaption of Medea explores the depths we go to exact revenge, seek power, and live with grief. 

 

Medea is an ancient greek tragedy written by Euripides, based upon the myth of Jason and Medea. It was first produced in 431 BC, yet its warnings are still heeded today. 

 

 

This Production is produced in special arrangements with Playscripts.
