The new book "Medea's Long Shadow in Postcolonial Contexts" edited by Ana Filipa Prata and Rodrigo Verano is an engaging collection that follows Medea 'into the conflictive territories of the twentieth- and twenty-first-century literature and visual arts.'

I was blown away by Conor Hanratty’s ‘Na Peirsigh’ in the Peacock last March, so it was a privilege to get an insight into the directorial decisions which led to him fusing the Irish-language tradition with the Ancient Greek so powerfully. 1/2 @AbbeyTheatre @edithmayhall
On Monday 2 Dec at 2pm, director Conor Hanratty, whose Na Peirsigh premiered this year at @AbbeyTheatre , will be in conversation with Prof Edith Hall. Join us in person or online to hear about his exciting Irish version of Aeschylus' Persians.
