“Medea” by Euripides, Translated by Diane Arnson Svarlien
Directed by Adjunct Professor of Theatre, Jenna Tamimi
After Medea sacrifices her homeland and family for her husband Jason, he leaves her for a young princess. Devastated, Medea takes revenge by killing the princess, the king, and her and Jason’s children. The production will use a translation of the ancient text and have a 1950s aesthetic with music from the era interjected into the action.
