This book offers a new, accurate and actable translation of one of
Euripides' most popular plays, together with a commentary which
provides insight into the challenges it sets for production and
suggestions for how to solve them. The introduction discusses the
social and cultural context of the play and its likely impact on
the original audience, the way in which it was originally
performed, the challenges which the lead roles present today and
Medea's implications for the modern audience. The text of the
translation is followed by the 'Theatrical Commentary' section on
the issues involved in staging each scene and chorus today,
embodying insights gained from a professional production. Notes on
the translation, a glossary of names, suggestions for further
reading and a chronology of Euripides' life and times round out the
volume. The book is intended for use by theatre practitioners who
wish to stage or workshop Medea and by students both of drama,
theatre and performance and of classical studies.
