[Table To-gather] With Love, Medea’s Boys

 
With Love, Medea's Boys

A poignant reflection on grief, destiny and contemporary spirituality

WestK x On & On Theatre Workshop present “With Love, Medea’s Boys” – an extension of the tale that started with the 2023 work-in-progress presentation. 

“With Love, Medea’s Boys” takes the classical Greek tragedy Medea as a starting point to explore the world of the afterlife through the eyes of Medea’s sons, following them as they shape their new world and learn about sacrifice, dignity and destiny. 

The collaborative production is performed by child and adult actors. Unfolding like a dark fairy tale – with the protagonists joined by a chorus of voices from children in parallel worlds – it weaves fact and fiction with elements of devised theatre, improvisational games and multimedia visuals, immersing the audience in a world where conventional adult wisdom is suspended.
