SUMMARY:CANCELLED - Reimagining Medea
DESCRIPTION:Reimagining Medea written and directed by Dr. Anuradha Marwah\nPerformed by THEA 250\n\nWhen: THIS EVENT HAS BEEN CANCELLED – December 8 at 7:30 pm\n\nWhere: Dana Dance\n\nWhat: In the course ‘Reimagining Medea: Participatory Theatre’\, which involves the making of a performance-in-the-round of Euripides’ play with student actors\, we propose to investigate the proto-feminist underpinnings of the classical play for its relevance in today’s time and age. The performance is built via a series of workshops in which the actors explore modes of connecting with the audience through a deep introspection of their own responses to the mythic characters. Viewing contemporary concerns through the lens of the universal themes of tragedy\, we aim at a fuller understanding of social and political issues around us and reaffirm theatre as one of the most effective workshops for democracy.
