By Euripides
Tragedy plays out on the main stage as HUTC presents this classic Greek tale of passion, jealousy and revenge. Scorned and humiliated by her unfaithful and politically motivated husband, Medea is exiled from her home on orders by the King. Medea pleads with King Kreon to allow her to stay for just one more day. Once permission is granted, she hatches one of the most shocking plans to unleash unimaginable horror upon those who have wronged her. Content Advisory: This play contains some violent images and mature subject matter that is not appropriate for young children.

Written by Larry Shue
Winner of two Obie Awards and two Outer Critics Circle Awards, this gem of a play is certain to cause side-splitting laughter. The reclusively shy Charlie leaves England and reluctantly accompanies his friend, Froggy, on a trip to a fishing lodge set in rural Georgia. Once there, Froggy informs the locals that Charlie is from an exotic country and speaks no English so that Charlie may be spared the embarrassment of making idle conversation. However, the plan backfires as the locals quickly begin to confide secrets to Charlie that challenge his ability to remain silent. “A constant invitation to relax and laugh at the foolishness of life” remarks The Village Voice. You won’t want to miss this uproarious comedy!
