(English Below). "I hader mig, fordi I hader jer selv for ikke at kunne gøre, hvad jeg har tænkt mig". Træd ind i Medeas verden gennem re:Medea. En forestilling om Medeas komplekse sind, styrke og kvindelige erfaring.
Forestillingen finder sted ved Brønshøj Vandtårn, Medeas tilflugtssted, hvor vi oplever verden gennem hendes øjne.
Vi udforsker følelsen af fremmedgørelse - fra sine rødder, sine nærmeste og sig selv - en følelse, der kan drive selv Medea til vanvid!
Skiftende mellem dansk og engelsk dykker vi ned i temaer som kvindelig skyld, vrede, uretfærdighed, ensomhed og det svære valg, i denne fortolkning af den klassiske græske myte.

re:Medea markerer debut'en for re:initiates, en kvartet af forskelligartede performere dedikeret til at skabe visuelt og filosofisk spændende teateroplevelser.
I samarbejde med den danske skuespiller Sebastian Alstrup og instruktør Sally Klie, integrerer de flersprogethed og tværfaglig udforskning, idet de trækker inspiration fra klassiske studier til moderne udtryk, når de injicerer feministiske perspektiver i fortællinger traditionelt forfattet af mænd.

"You despise me because you despise in yourselves that
you are unable to do what I'm about to do."
Ancient agony and contemporary intensity converge in re:Medea, a polyvocal, multisensory theatrical odyssey delving deep into Medea's psyche, rooted in the pluricultural female experience.
Set against the dramatic backdrop of the Brønshøj Water Tower, re:Medea offers a radical immersion into the estrangement of a modern woman far away from her roots, driven by the fires of intense love. Through the perspectives of four women - present Medea, past Medea, the Nurse, and Creusa, Jason's ill-fated wife - the audience becomes the chorus of Corinthian women, intimately intertwined in the unfolding tragedy. In a dynamic interplay of Danish and English, themes of grief, womanhood, rage, injustice, and the paradox of choices unravel themselves in a fervent reimagening of the classic Greek myth.
re:Medea heralds the debut of the re:initiates, a quartet of diverse performers dedicated to crafting visually and philosophically exciting theatre experiences. Partnering with Danish actor Sebastian Alstrup and director Sally Klie, they integrate multilingualism and cross-disciplinary exploration, drawing inspiration from classical studies to contemporary expression, when injecting feminist perspectives into narratives traditionally authored by men.
