'She's chucked out like an old coat that nae langer fits him…'
Medea and Jason, clinging together as refugees in Corinth, have
struggled to bring up their beloved offspring in this alien and
unsympathetic society. Now Jason has a plan to better integrate
himself. Unfortunately, this involves abandoning his wife, the
mother of his children… Spurned, destitute, desperate, Medea
exacts her terrible retribution. Liz Lochhead's Scots-inflected
version of Euripides' classic revenge tragedy was first performed
by Theatre Babel in 2000 and won the Saltire Society Scottish Book
of the Year Award. It was revived by the National Theatre of
Scotland as part of the 2022 Edinburgh International Festival, with
Adura Onashile as Medea, directed by Michael Boyd.
