These Young Men and Women is an interdisciplinary and multimedia work created by Jack Ferver. Three tragedies by Euripides are used for the source material: Medea, Elektra, and The Trojan Women. The timeless human themes from these plays are inhabited through Ferver’s often humorous and vicious original text and choreography. The work acts out modern day tragedies of American youth as it juxtaposes forms from the classical to the contemporary, from the epic to the quotidian, and from the mythic to the personal. For mature audiences only.
