Before she was one of the greatest mythical monsters of all time, Medusa was a kind, beautiful sea-nymph in Athena's service. Devoted and beautiful she rose in Athena’s service, then she caught the eye of Poseidon. His violence and Athena’s jealousy created a monster. Join us in this theatrical retelling of the little-known origins of the cursed Medusa.

This production contains scenes depicting sexual assault offstage (heard, not seen) and will have an Intimacy Professional. This production explores how rape culture reverberates through the ages, and calls attention to the great injustice suffered by female victims of abuse.
