3rd Act Theatre Company presents Medusa Undone, written by Bella Poynton and directed by Kris Kuss, with Intimacy Coordination by Amanda Rose Villarreal of Theatrical Intimacy Education. Performances are each Friday and Saturday at 8:00 p.m. and Sunday at 2:30 p.m. April 9-24, 2021, with a streamed performance at 2:30 p.m. on April 25, 2021.
The final production of 3rd Act's inaugural Noire Season explores the little-known origins of the cursed Medusa, one of the greatest mythical monsters of all time. A kind and beautiful sea-nymph, Medusa catches the eye of Poseidon while in service to the goddess Athena. Poseidon's violence and Athena's jealousy create a monster.
3rd Act's Noire Season is an opportunity to introduce plays that push boundaries for adult-only audiences and has included productions of 1984, Frankenstein, and Oxtiern. Medusa Undone is presented in partnership with the YWCA-OK. April is Sexual Assault Awareness Month, and representatives from the YWCA will be present at each performance to discuss their planned activities and provide information for assistance to those affected by sexual assault. The production explores themes of sexual violence, including auditory representation of offstage assault, and is recommended for audiences 18 and older.
Medusa Undone stars a dynamic cast of local talent including Tiffany Tuggle as Medusa, Kat Adams as Athena Nike, Keegan Zimmerman as Poseidon, Allyson Rose as Stheno, and Christine Jolly as Echo.
