- More about Medea
Medea and Jason have struggled to integrate into Corinth, but Jason has a plan to abandon his wife, Medea, and exact her retribution.

Medea and Jason, as refugees in Corinth, have faced immense challenges in raising their beloved offspring within this foreign and unyielding society. Filled with a desire to better integrate himself, Jason comes up with a plan. However, this plan necessitates leaving his wife, the mother of his children, behind.
In a state of profound rejection, Medea unleashes her wrath, exacting a terrible retribution. Liz Lochhead's Scots-inflected rendition of Euripides' classic revenge tragedy, first performed by Theatre Babel in 2000, received critical acclaim and secured the Saltire Society Scottish Book of the Year Award. In 2022, the National Theatre of Scotland brought it back to life, featuring Adura Onashile in the role of Medea, directed by Michael Boyd, as part of the Edinburgh International Festival.
