Publisher's Synopsis
Winner of the 2014 Dharma Grace Award in playwriting and the University of California Santa Cruz Humanities Dean's Award. "More than simply an adaptation of Euripedes' Medea, this multi-media, transtemporal piece draws on a variety of literary and cultural works, from The Tempest, especially stagings that reverse the gender and race of the characters, to the Latin American telenovela and media imagery of the black body. The result is a striking experiment in linguistic and cultural translation." - Susan Gillman
