Club #5 The united ones [20+]
Ecstatic love turns into heartbreaking pain: Medea, endowed with magical powers, is useful to Jason until he has obtained the Golden Fleece. In Corinth, the self-confident Colchian woman then becomes a burden to him. Whether she is a revenge-seeking child murderer – as with Euripides – or an outcast healer – as with Christa Wolf – it is always the patriarchal structures that prove Medea's undoing. The players of Club #5 move between the two narratives, explore the ancient myth and bring it into the present: how much pain can a person bear?
