Medusa works behind the bar in Athena’s nightclub, slinging waters to the pilled-up masses. She’s popping off on social media, talking about being ‘clinically radge’, revelling in the lights and dancing in the debris - until Poseidon takes something that wasn’t his to take.
Written by Heather Marshall and directed by Jen McGregor, Medusa is a new show for theatre lovers, ravers, and people searching for queer, disabled community. Designed with access in mind, it can be experienced whatever way works for you - in the afternoon, evening or late at night, while sitting, dancing, or lying down - and tickets will be sold on a ‘pay what you can’ sliding scale. Full access information is listed below.
Evolving from Heather’s own personal experience, Medusa invites us under the prescription pad of Pre-Menstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD), and the way it ravages both the physical and mental health of those it affects.
Bringing an electronic soundtrack, contemporary choreography and Scottish underground rave culture to an age-old story of misogyny, Medusa challenges our view of the ‘hormonal woman’ and complex mental health conditions.

Please note this production features discussion of complex mental health conditions, sexual violence and recreational drug use.
The performance at 2pm on Saturday 7th March is a low sensory performance designed for those who experience acute sensory overwhelm and will have lower levels of lighting and sound.
