Venomous

What would Medusa say if she had a chance to speak for herself? Jessica Fudim’s dance-theater solo Venomous looks at the classic Greek myth from Medusa’s perspective and moves her story beyond that of a snake-headed monster. Fudim combines contemporary movement with amped-up party dancing, video projection, whimsical props, and moments of audience collaboration. As she leads us through ancient temples, and into Medusa’s fuller humanity, we dig into the complexities of who gets to author one’s own reputation, and who gets to be believed.
