Maddy: A Modern Day Medea and The Swan Song
Thursdays-Sundays. Continues through Aug. 29 2009; $12-$15
646-299-5345
Theater: Off-Off Broadway
This odd pairing of modern and modernized theater kicks off with an updated version of Euripides’s play about Medea, set at the Corinthian, a trailer park in the Midwest. Both a Greek tragedy and a dreary slice of heartland realism, Will Le Vasseur’s adaptation also adds a supernatural twist to the story of the struggling single mom. The evening’s second play, by Chekhov, has an aging actor confronting the legacy of a long-lost career on an empty stage.
