Top of PageLa Medea
Synopsis:
Franca Rame wrote and performed LA MEDEA & LO STUPRO [THE RAPE] in the 1970s at the height of second-wave feminism in morally restrictive Italy, which was also going through a period of mounting social upheaval. The plays were created to raise awareness of women's situation in the society of the time, but are just as relevant four decades later. Human trafficking, physical and sexual violence, psychological abuse, sexual slavery, honour-killings, genital mutilation, education restrictions, financial inequality, corporate glass-ceilings, age-invisibility... the list of social oppressions perpetrated against women is as extensive as ever in our current society, ranging from the third world to the first world.
Notes:
Original Playwright - Franca Rame; Original Playwright - Dario Fo. after Euripides. Translated by Laurence Strangio with Margherita Peluso; Adapted and directed by Laurence Strangio
