MEDUSA: Behind-The-Scenes

After two sold out runs, Brian King, Nathan Cohen and cabaret band What Time Is It, Mr. Fox? have cemented their multimedia musical experience, Medusa: Reclaiming the Myth, as one of Boston’s brightest and most successful live events of the past couple of years. The animated audio play with live band performances retells the Medusa tale for the modern era: subverting themes of dominance and violence and reclaiming the underlying themes of female empowerment, cunning, collaboration, and triumph. With love, humor, and a playful touch of modernity, “Medusa: Reclaiming the Myth” presents a vision for strategic and imaginative collaboration among marginalized characters and invites audiences to view the Medusa story as a tale of self-love, triumph, and liberation that you won’t want to miss!

Join the creative team behind the hit show for a special virtual one-night-only behind-the-scenes experience, exploring the vision and process behind the piece, it’s innovative use of the Planetarium fulldome medium, and the social justice commentary at its heart. Including excerpts from the show and other surprises from the team. This is an evening fans old and new of the piece won’t want to miss!

This program is free thanks to the generosity of the Lowell Institute.
