Heiner Muller's Medeaplay


Heiner Muller is weird. I mean that in an opinionated way that is only focused upon his writing. I have no idea what was going on through his head when he was writing Medea play. Furthermore, the phenomenon of watching this would probably be even more strange. How would anyone know what was going on? I found the ties to former Greek tragedies interesting, subtly hinting at Jason's past. Beyond that, I had no idea what to discuss. I had no idea what was occurring, to be honest. It was utter madness and confusion and left me very stupefied.


However, upon researching it, I did find that this performance has indeed been put on!
