Music by Will Gregory & Alison Goldfrapp. Starring: Helen McCrory, Danny Sapani, Dominic Rowan, Martin Turner. Medea is a wife and a mother. For the sake of her husband, Jason, she's left her home and borne two sons in exile. But when he abandons his family for a new life, Medea faces banishment and separation from her children. Cornered, she begs for one day's grace. It's time enough. She exacts an appalling revenge and destroys everything she holds dear. Helen McCrory returns to the National to take the title role in Euripides' powerful tragedy, in a new version by Ben Power with music written by Will Gregory and Alison Goldfrapp. Formula Kino Horizon |
