  • My Mother Medea
    MY MOTHER MEDEA TEACHER RESOURCE PACK MY MOTHER MEDEA FROM 31 JAN - 5 MAR 2017 FOR STUDENTS IN YEARS 9 - 13 By Holger Schober Translated by David Tushingham Directed by Justin Audibert WHY SHOULD WE HAVE TO ADAPT WHEN WE’RE NOT WANTED IN THE FIRST PLACE? Born to megastar parents, teenagers Eriopis and Polyxenos have a lot to live up to – and a lot to feel angry about. Their father Jason betrayed their mother, they’ve had to leave Europe, they’re displaced, they’re alienated and now they’re on their own. But they’re fed up of being ‘the foreign kids’. They’ve had enough. They sit at the front of the class in their new school and spit out the story of who they really are to anyone who’ll listen. This punchy, modern play by Austrian playwright Holger Schober offers a completely new angle on the age-old Greek myth of Jason and Medea, retelling their story through their children’s eyes. The audience sit at school desks as the new kids take centre stage and their story unravels. Contains strong language.

  • Myth Made Fact Lesson 8: Jason with Dr
    Myth Made Fact Lesson 8: Jason with Dr. Louis Markos Outline: Jason Jason was a foundling, who was a royal child who grew up as a peasant. Jason was son of Eason. Eason was king until Pelias threw him into exile, also sending Jason away. When he came of age he decided to go to fulfill his destiny. On his way to the palace he helped an old man cross a river. When Jason arrived he came with only one sandal, as the other had been ripped off in the river. Pelias had been warned, “Beware the man with one sandal.” Pelias challenges Jason to go and bring back the Golden Fleece. About a generation or so earlier there had been a cruel king who tried to gain favor with the gods by sacrificing a boy and a girl. o Before he could do it, the gods sent a rescue mission. They sent a golden ram with a golden fleece that could fly. The ram flew Phrixos and Helle away. o The ram came to Colchis, in the southeast corner of the Black Sea. Helle slipped and fell and drowned in the Hellespont, which means Helle’s bridge (between Europe and Asia). o Phrixos sacrificed the ram and gave the fleece as a gift to the people of Colchis, to King Aeetes. o The Golden Fleece gives King Aeetes power. Jason builds the Argo. The Argonauts are the sailors of the Argo. Jason and the Argonauts go on the journey to get the Golden Fleece. Many of the Argonauts are the fathers of the soldiers of the Trojan War.

  • A Riveting Retelling of Euripides' MEDEA on Stage at the Sean O
    A riveting retelling of Euripides’ MEDEA on stage at the Sean O’Sullivan Theatre This production of Medea by the ancient Greek tragedian Euripides draws on the clichés of trash-talk TV in a dramatic blend of video, live music and performance, on stage at the Sean O’Sullivan Theatre, Nov. 13, 14, 15, 2008 at 7:30 p.m. Director Natalie Alvarez presents a disquieting critique of popular media culture and its representations of the tragic. This main stage production situates the play in a multi- media television studio recording of a daytime talk show. Designed by David Vivian, Medea features compelling performances by the students of the Department of Dramatic Arts. The private-as-public culture of ancient Athens - where personal conflicts and crimes become public in the Assembly and ancient amphitheatres - finds its modern counterpart in the voyeuristic scrutiny of current media culture. The domestic dispute at the core of the play becomes sensational fodder for television cameras, the modern lenses that replace the omnipresent gaze of the ancient gods; the Chorus Leader becomes talk-show host, while the chorus retains its ancient function as an extension of the audience, passive and complicit witnesses of this tragic story of betrayal and revenge. A surprise musical guest transforms the Chorus' words into chart-topping contemporary rock, bringing us the signature of Niagara's vibrant music scene. Medea will leave audiences with a greater understanding of how revenge, pain and anger can compel one to seek justice on individual terms.

  • VG Interview: Cherrie Moraga
    VG Interview: Cherrie Moraga Maria-Antónia Oliver-Rotger (M-A O-R): What have been your major dramatic influences? Cherrie Moraga (CM): My major influence has been the bilingual- ism and working-class theater of the Chicano Teatro movements, especially El Teatro Campesino. Also the poetic sensuality of Fed- erico García Lorca. The teachings of María Irene Fornes allowed me to enter playwriting as a poet, to find the story through image and character, i.e. an organic place of the heart, rather than through the progressive plot-line (action-driven) structure. I have been inspired by the technique of other playwrights: the language and structural inventiveness of African-American Suzan Lori Parks, the courage of the female characterization of the Puerto Rican playwright Migdalia Cruz. The storytelling en voz alta de mis tías y mi mamá around the kitchen table introduced me (especially my mother) to the dramatic art of story-telling. M-A O-R: What caused you to start writing drama after having written poetry and prose? CM: After publishing Loving in the War Years (1983) which was very autobiographical, my own story had finally been told on the page. This allowed space within me for character (some one other than myself to enter) my unconscious. The character started speaking out loud. This was Corky from Giving Up the Ghost. It was oral. Thus, the beginnings of dramatic writing. Interview by: Maria-Antónia Oliver-Rotger Date: January 2000 1 © 2009 Regents of the University of Minnesota. All rights reserved.

  • ON the ORACLE GIVEN to AEGEUS (Eur
    ON THE ORACLE GIVEN TO AEGEUS (Eur. Med. 679, 681) Aegeus, according to Euripides the childless king of Athens, consulted the oracle at Delphi on the matter of his childlessness, and was given a puzzling answer. He decided, therefore, to seek an explanation from Pittheus/ king of Troezen, who had the reputation of being a prophetic expert and a wise interpreter. On his way from Delphi to Troezen Aegeus passes through Corinth,1 meets with Medea, and repeats to her the Pythia’s advice: ἀσκοΰ με τὸν προυχοντα μὴ λῦσαι πόδα ... (679) πρὶν ἄν πατρῷαν αΰθις ἐστίαν μόλω. (681) Ί am not to loosen the hanging foot of the wineskin ... until I return again to the hearth of my fathers.’ Medea does not attempt to interpret the oracle, but offers instead to cure Aegeus’ childlessness with drugs when she arrives at his court, and the Athenian king having promised to grant her asylum proceeds to Troezen and to the begetting of Theseus. Ἀ hexametric version of the oracle, which somewhat differs from that of Euripides, appears in Apollod. Bibl. 3, 15, 6 (and in Plut.

  • Introduction: Medea in Greece and Rome
    INTRODUCTION: MEDEA IN GREECE AND ROME A J. Boyle maiusque mari Medea malum. Seneca Medea 362 And Medea, evil greater than the sea. Few mythic narratives of the ancient world are more famous than the story of the Colchian princess/sorceress who betrayed her father and family for love of a foreign adventurer and who, when abandoned for another woman, killed in revenge both her rival and her children. Many critics have observed the com­ plexities and contradictions of the Medea figure—naive princess, knowing witch, faithless and devoted daughter, frightened exile, marginalised alien, dis­ placed traitor to family and state, helper-màiden, abandoned wife, vengeful lover, caring and filicidal mother, loving and fratricidal sister, oriental 'other', barbarian saviour of Greece, rejuvenator of the bodies of animals and men, killer of kings and princesses, destroyer and restorer of kingdoms, poisonous stepmother, paradigm of beauty and horror, demi-goddess, subhuman monster, priestess of Hecate and granddaughter of the sun, bride of dead Achilles and ancestor of the Medes, rider of a serpent-drawn chariot in the sky—complex­ ities reflected in her story's fragmented and fragmenting history. That history has been much examined, but, though there are distinguished recent exceptions, comparatively little attention has been devoted to the specifically 'Roman' Medea—the Medea of the Republican tragedians, of Cicero, Varro Atacinus, Ovid, the younger Seneca, Valerius Flaccus, Hosidius Geta and Dracontius, and, beyond the literary field, the Medea of Roman painting and Roman sculp­ ture. Hence the present volume of Ramus, which aims to draw attention to the complex and fascinating use and abuse of this transcultural heroine in the Ro­ man intellectual and visual world.

  • Medea |Sample Answer
    Medea | Sample answer 2006 Higher Level Exam Question What insights does Euripides’ play “Medea” give us into the different ways women and men viewed marriage at the time? There is no denying that men and women had different views of marriage. Euripides provides excellent insights in the play Medea. This difference am be seen when Medea makes her first speech to the chorus after finding out Jason is interested in marrying another. Medea speaks of marriage almost like a trap. They are bought and sold like objects, taken from their homes and forced to lead a new life. Medea explains that women must always “Look to one man only.” She must stay at home and she is never allowed to be too intelligent. What is even worse is that men can wander and look for pleasure elsewhere if they get bored. “If a man grows tired of the company at home, he can go out, and find a cure for tediousness.” There is a double standard for men with regards to remaining loyal at this time. Men are allowed to be unfaithful but “for women, divorce is not respectable; to repel the man, not possible.” This clearly displays how women had to be faithful and constantly loyal in marriage whereas men could be as unfaithful as they liked and the marriage would still continue. It is clear that women viewed marriage as sacred and central to their identity. By Jason leaving Medea, he has taken everything away from her. As a result of her loss of status and power, the chorus and the nurse are completely on her side.
