First produced in 431 BC, this ancient Greek tragedy is based on the myth of Jason, of Golden Fleece fame, and Medea, the former princess of the kingdom of Colchis. The plot centers on Medea’s desire for revenge against her unfaithful husband Jason--and the extreme measures she takes to satisfy it. 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
