SUMMARY:Medea. The Oxford Greek Play 2023
DESCRIPTION:This year’s Oxford Greek play is Medea\, performed 8-10 November.\n\n \n\n“What drives a mother to kill her own children? How can a victimised woman turn into a passionate and scheming avenger? These questions have gripped audiences of Euripides’ Medea for over 2000 years and will be returning to the stage once again. Performed with a new English translation alongside the original ancient-Greek\, the 2023 Oxford Greek Play aims to breathe new life into the past and reveal its timeless significance.\n\n \n\nA stranger in a foreign land\, deserted by her husband Jason\, Medea initially finds herself in a desperate situation. Her intelligence and wrath is feared by King Creon of Corinth\, who casts her into exile. But she is fatally granted one more day to stay. A proud but treacherous woman\, an expert rhetorician driven by ungovernable passion\, Medea enacts a deadly vengeance that shocks any who witness it. Euripides’ Medea is a classic drama that questions more than it answers\, never failing to both fascinate and astound.”\n\n \nFURTHER INFORMATION AND TO BOOK

SUMMARY:The Song of Arms and a Man\, UCL
DESCRIPTION:George Sharpley’s adaptation of this classic poem will be read by Ben Cartlidge\, Matthew Hargreaves\, Emma Kirkby and Maria Roddis.\n\n \n\nThe Song of Arms and a Man presents Aeneas’ struggle to fulfil his destiny as founder of Rome – from his escape from the burning ruins of Troy to his asylum and heart-breaking affair with the Carthaginian queen Dido and his reluctant war with the inhabitants of his fated homeland of Italy.\n\n \n\nSelections of Virgil’s epic verse are read in the original Latin interspersed with an English narration which tells the whole story of the poem. With English surtitles all comers have a unique opportunity to enjoy the magic of these Latin voices.
