Harvard Classical Club Play: Seneca's Medea
HARVARD UNIVERSITY, Adams House, 26 Plympton St., Adams Pool Theater,
Cambridge, MA 02138A play by Seneca, translated by the Harvard Classics Club
Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned! After defying her father, killing
her brother, and tricking other women into patricide, Medea is abandoned by
the very hero she sullied her soul to save. On Jason's wedding day to the
virginal Princess of Corinth, Medea must flee into exile and leave her two
children behind. But this witch isn't going down without a fight--and no
one takes revenge like Medea. Come explore Roman playwright Seneca's
character-focused interpretation of the Classical Greek tragedy, presented
in original translation by the Harvard Classics Club.
