In the Greek tragedy Medea by Euripides, Medea murders her children to get revenge on her husband Jason, who has betrayed her. Why might this ancient Greek play still be meaningful for a twenty-first century audience in the United States of America? Instead of producing the play with actors using masks and cothornous (wooden shoes with tall heels) as they did in ancient Greece, how might you produce such a play to make it more meaningful to a contemporary audience?

What will be an ideal response?

Answers will vary.
