subj:medeA
subj:medeA / Özlem Özhabeş
subj:medeA revisits Medea without the moral panic.
A one-woman show that pulls the myth out of convenient amnesia and asks: who benefits when a woman becomes the monster?
Part confession, part courtroom, part ritual, this performance traces motherhood, exile, desire, and rage, alongside the quiet, everyday violences that push women to the edge and then blame them for falling. Expect ancient echoes, contemporary testimony, and a live audience pulled into the question: what do we demand from mothers, and what do we refuse to give them?
With chalk, fabric, projections, and shifting voices, subj:medeA builds and breaks a story in real time. Messy, funny, furious, tender.
Not a defence. Not an apology.
A refusal to look away.
