A thrilling production that gets under your skin.

Medea helped Jason in her homeland Colchis, protected him, and killed for him. He promised to love her and to live with her. They flee together to his homeland Corinth and live there on the outskirts of society, which does not accept Medea, the outsider, the barbarian, as an equal, while she welcomes Jason, the Greek hero, as one of her own. Nevertheless, the two live there peacefully for ten years with their two children until Jason, without Medea's knowledge, marries the king's daughter to rise socially.

This shakes Medea to the core of her being. The pain of the broken vow, her disappointment, and her boundless rage she negotiates publicly. She takes the audience with her in her struggle for justice to a point where even her closest confidante can no longer follow her: the murder of her own children to completely destroy Jason.

The story of Medea and Jason fascinates over the centuries: a love as great as that of Romeo and Juliet, and which also leads to catastrophe. Woman and man, love and calculation, home and alienation, right and wrong, these are the themes of the play, which begins with a promise that is broken.
