Medea in ancient Greek

Have you ever seen or heard a Greek play, a tragedy, in the ululating cries and tones of ancient Greek?

It’s definitely some thing I would recommend in one’s life time of theatre going experiences.

And you have the chance coming up… Oct 10 to Oct 13 is Medea at the Cambridge Arts Theatre.

It’s in the original Greek of Euripides.  I saw the last Greek play a few years back and it was astonishing. I’m going again on Oct 13, so maybe see you there. It’s worth the trip to Cambridge to hear what the Greeks would have heard even if you will see visual a very different performance.
