MEDEA

blood covered hand
María Zurita Ontiveros & Ash Jeffers
Spring, 2021

This is a border zone with Corinth a thriving place--but poverty and loss beyond its walls. Medea is an immigrant who destroyed both her way home and her family for the man she loves, Jason. Now she suffers a great injustice by his hand and faces deportation alongside her children. She decides to take matters into her own hands and forces Jason to suffer as she does. This spring mainstage is also a distinction project from two of our graduating seniors María Zurita Ontiveros and Ash Jeffers. 


"Medea" by Euripides

translated by Michael Collier and Georgia Machemer
directed by María Zurita Ontiveros; designed by Ash Jeffers
