I am not a part of the story you tried to write
I am the story
And it ends when I say so
Everyone knows how Jason won the Golden Fleece – everyone knows how he became a hero for all time – and everyone knows the part his wife, Medea, played in creating his legend – don’t they?
Erased from the narrative – abandoned by her husband for a new wife and a new life – left isolated and alone in a city where she does not and cannot belong – Medea begins to plot revenge. A terrible, bloody revenge that will send a howl of rage echoing through the ages.
The award-winning production of this thrilling Greek tragedy returns, re-imagined, to tour Scotland’s stages.
Written by Euripides, in a version by Kathy McKean. Directed by Gordon Barr.
Recommended Age Guide 12+ | Contains scenes of emotional distress; scenes of marital breakdown and discussions and representations of child death.
