Medea of the Laundromat – June 12-22
“Eccentric as to be nearly unthinkable.” – The Village Voice
ABOUT
TONY-award nominee John-Andrew Morrison takes on the title role in a revival of H.M. Koutoukas’ Medea of the Laundromat. An ancient Greek tragedy set in a laundromat that unfolds in a 1960’s coffeehouse.
This “ritualistic camp” premiered in 1965 at Café La MaMa before moving on to Caffe Cino & Theatre Genesis. The Village Voice, which awarded Koutoukas an Obie the next year “for the style and energy of his assaults on the theatre in both playwriting and production,” called this version so “eccentric as to be nearly unthinkable.”
