Show: The Untold Myth of Medusa, The Musical; Part 1
Venue: The Southern Theater
A daring take on mythology
This show was thoroughly engaging and well written, with a host of engaging characters and a story that is somehow funny, amusing and incredibly dark and dramatic at the same time. All of the actors stood out as well as the songs that showcased their singing talent! The actors for Poseidon, Echo and Medusa in particular stood out! Zeus was played as a power drunk (and regular drunk) tyrant philanderer. Athena was mysterious and complicated. Hermes added great levity and humor, as well as empathy for trying to look out for Medusa but being pushed around and belittled. The show perfectly fits the creepy foreboding atmosphere of the theater and stage. I cant wait for the second part! This is a must see.
