Medusa's Song

Recommended by

  • Aly Kantor: Medusa's Song

    The ticking clock starts on page one in this real-time two-hander full of music, movement, and incredibly high stakes! Even if you go in knowing what to expect, you're likely to be as surprised as I was by the way the story and the myth came together, leading up to a masterful final reversal. The characters were well-drawn and consistent (and I had a good laugh with each "But first -"), but still ripe for projection: we, as the reader, as the audience, know these people. We may even be one of them. A tense and timely piece!

    A brilliant use of the Medusa tale brought to college campuses and rape culture. Powerful and will leave its mark!
