MEDEA: RE-VERSED
BEDLAM and RED BULL THEATER PRESENT:
A World Premiere
By
Luis Quintero
Co-conceived and Directed By
Nathan Winkelstein
Co-production with
Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival
Adapted From
Euripedes
An ice-cold, high-octane adaptation of Euripides’ play written in battle rap verse, this brand-new hip-hop version of Medea sheds contemporary light on the classic tragedy of family, power, and revenge – as stunning today as it was two thousand years ago. Quintero’s version of the story reignites the sacred rage of our ancestors and illuminates in the most human terms the extraordinary lengths that some people will travel to even the scales of justice.
