Medea is a remarkable story of injustice and ruthless revenge. One of the most powerful and best-known female characters in the theatre history.


A woman who transgresses from mother to anti-mother through the ultimate rebellious act of murdering her own children. She is infamous for challenging the patriarchy.


For the first time in the UK, the critically acclaimed punk-drama KILL YOUR FATHER— a radical reimagining of the Medea myth by black lesbian Brazilian playwright Grace Passô—takes the stage. Maria Paula — a Latina woman, an immigrant, a feminist, a rebellious actor—is now Medea.


When The Medea was originally written, it was performed only by men for a male audience. It's time to change the narrative. KILL YOUR FATHER is for the feminists, the women, and their allies only.


The play powerfully exposes the limits of patriarchy in our society. It’s raw, it’s poetic, and it’s killingly poignant.
