National Theatre of Scotland’s production of Medea is a moving interpretation of a timeless Greek tragedy. It is also, easily, the best theatre production I’ve ever seen.
Medea the story has always been about the horror of betrayal and revenge; the destruction of lust; and the power and terror of women rising up.
When the chorus of women emerged from behind and among the audience, speaking in unison, with one voice, telling Medea of their universal woes of love, loss and oppression, it sent chills down my spine.
