About the Show
Winner of six Bay Area Critics Circle Awards including “Best Musical,” the LA Weekly Award for “Best Musical,” and the GLAAD Media Award for “Best Theatre,” Medea: A Musical Comedy is a campy and critically-acclaimed musical take on Euripides' MEDEA. A theatre company is putting on a campy musical version of Medea. Paul, the super gay star and Elsa, playing the title role hate each other off-stage then suddenly find themselves falling in love, shockingly. The quintessential backstage story spirals out of control as the flamboyant director goes insane trying to keep the whole mess on track, with many twists, turns, and sequins along the way! Get tickets now and become one of thousands of theatregoers at one of the funniest and murderous musicals in town!
The press calls Medea: A Musical Comedy “A delight! Pure fun! A dazzling display! Executed with such performance panache that you gasp with gratitude! Irresistible!” (Variety), "...provocative thinking and exuberant theatrics..." (WSJ)
