Medea is based on an ancient Greek myth, in which the title character helps Jason (Giasone), leader of the famous Argonauts, steal the Golden Fleece—only to be abandoned by him. While her betrayal makes Medea a victim, this operatic interpretation gives her the last word as she unleashes her rage with chilling violence against those who have wronged her.
