The Getty Villa (Pacific Palisades, CA)

From the critically acclaimed author of Electricidad and Oedipus el Rey, Luis Alfaro’s Mojada is a breathtaking reimagining of Euripides’s classic Greek tragedy Medea transported to East Los Angeles. In an epic journey of border crossings, Medea, a seamstress with extraordinary skill, runs from a past filled with betrayals. With husband Hason and their son in tow, Medea’s struggle to adapt takes a disastrous turn when old and new worlds meet in the City of Angels. Alfaro’s gripping contemporary take on the ancient myth tackles the complexities of family, tradition, culture and explores the explosive moments when they all collide.
