Medea in Manitoba

Between now and December 13, Winnipeg audiences can Seana McKenna and Scott Wentworth at the Manitoba Theatre Centre.

Medea is "Euripides' great drama of romantic obsession, the most searing of Greek tragedies, tells the tale of the princess Medea. For the love of Jason, an ambitious adventurer, she has betrayed her father and her people, murdered her own brother and gone into lonely exile in an alien land. Now, casually dismissed by the arrogant man for whom she has given her life, she plans a terrible revenge."

This Mirvish co-production, directed by Miles Potter, will reach Toronto audiences January 9, 2009, for a four-week run at the Canon Theatre.
