Title: Euripides' Medea
Description: The play begins after Medea, a princess in her own land, has sacrificed everything for Jason: she helped him in his quest for the Golden Fleece, eloped with him to Greece, and borne him sons. When Jason breaks his oath to her and betrays her by marrying the king's daughter--his ticket to the throne--Medea contemplates the ultimate retribution.
