The
emotional complexity of Euripides' Medea has haunted Western
theater for nearly 2,500 years, presenting one of the strongest
female characters ever to appear on stage. Leading opera and theater
director Deborah Warner and one of Ireland's finest actresses, Fiona
Shaw, team up to bring Euripides' gripping tragedy into sharp contemporary
focus, an intense collaboration which earned the pair London's coveted
Evening Standard awards. This timeless tale of a scorned
woman's horrifying revenge "is full of brilliantly telling
images, [and] gives you a shattering sense of the psychology behind
the heroine," raved The Independent (London).
