SUMMARY:The Myth of Medea: Medea and Medos
DESCRIPTION:The Myth of Medea: Medea and Medos\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout The Myth of Medea: Medea and Medos\n\n\n\nThe classic story of betrayal and revenge retold and continued in a startling new tragedy by Oxford playwright Nick Thomas.  \n\n\n\nAn Asian sorceress exiled in the Greek city of Corinth\, when Medea is callously betrayed by her husband\, Jason\, she uses her powers of magic and prophecy to exact the worst revenge imaginable. First dramatised by Euripides in 431 BC\, this ancient myth pursues the themes of love and loss\, superstition and piety\, and loyalty and hatred to a terrifying conclusion. But Medea’s story isn’t finished yet…  \n\n\n\nNick Thomas first presented his one-hour reworking of Medea at the OFS in 2004\, when the Oxford Times called it “a first class modern tragedy.” This June Nick returns to direct a revival of his Medea\, now paired with its sequel\, Medos. This new play continues the story of Medea into her second exile in Athens and involves her in a different strand of tragic Greek myth that has never been dramatised before.   \n\n\n\nThe ancient Greek myths are some of the most colourful and gripping stories ever told\, driven by timeless human motivations and full of magic\, suspense\, and drama. This new production is a must for students of Greek literature and modern theatre alike\, as Nick Thomas uses English dramatic verse to take the cast and audience on a thrilling ride into the depths of our cultural past.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTickets\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPlease see important booking information below. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nBooking information\n\n\n\nTicket prices: \n\n\n\nStandard – £15.00 \n\n\n\nPay more – £20.00 \n\n\n\nPay less – £10.00 \n\n\n\nDates & times: \n\n\n\nWednesday 25 to Saturday 28 June 2025 \n\n\n\nWednesday to Friday at 7.30pm\, Saturday at 2.30pm and 7.30pm   \n\n\n\nRunning time: \n\n\n\n1 hour 50 minutes \n\n\n\nAge guidance: \n\n\n\n14+  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout The Old Fire Station\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Old Fire Station in Oxford is an arts centre with a unique social mission\, combining creativity with community impact.
