Overview

A poignant reflection on grief, destiny and contemporary spirituality

This August, WestK x On & On Theatre Workshop present With Love, Medea’s Boys – an extension of the tale that started with the 2023 work-in-progress presentation.

Co-directed and co-written by emerging theatre makers Miu Law and Sham Chung-tat, With Love, Medea’s Boys takes the classical Greek tragedy Medea as a starting point to explore the world of the afterlife through the eyes of Medea’s sons, following them as they shape their new world and learn about sacrifice, dignity and destiny.

The collaborative production is performed by child and adult actors. Unfolding like a dark fairy tale – with the protagonists joined by a chorus of voices from children in parallel worlds – it weaves fact and fiction with elements of devised theatre, improvisational games and multimedia visuals, immersing the audience in a world where conventional adult wisdom is suspended.

This programme is co-presented and co-produced by WestK and On & On Theatre Workshop. It is part of the WestK Creators series and part of the Table To-gather programme curated by On & On Theatre Workshop. Miu Law is a member of the Table To-gather collective.
