Medea by Euripides
I choose to take back my life. My life. Medea is a wife and a mother. For the sake of her husband, Jason, she's left her home and borne two sons in exile. But when he abandons his family for a new life, Medea faces banishment and separation from her children. Cornered, she begs for one day's grace. It's time enough. She exacts an appalling revenge and destroys everything she holds dear. Ben Power's version of Euripides' tragedy Medea premiered at the National Theatre, London, in July 2014.
Ben Power plays include A Tender Thing (RSC), Elephantom (adapted from Ross Collins' book, National Theatre, West End) Ibsen's Emperor & Galilean (Adaptation for the National Theatre), Cinderella (Lyric Hammersmith), Paradise Lost (adaptation for Headlong, Northampton, Hackney Empire) and for Headlong, with Rupert Goold, Six Characters in Search of an Author (Headlong tour, West End, International Tour) and Faustus.
