Medea

Dramatic Reading of Medea, by Euripides

Translated and Directed by Bryan Doerries

Euripides’ Medea timelessly depicts how scorned passion can lead to revenge, and sometimes even to unthinkable violence. This dynamic event features dramatic readings of scenes from Euripides’ Medea, followed by a lively, facilitated audience discussion about healthy relationships, under-discussed mental health issues, and the relevance of this ancient myth to our lives today.

This is the first time I have ever been able to speak with dignity about my postpartum depression in a public setting.
