This play is about how Medea seeks revenge and see if she was right or wrong in the way she sought revenge. She had loved Jason, and they had 2 kids together. She tries to kill Jason, his new wife, the king of Corinth, and her own 2 kids. Many people question if killing her 2 kids was right or wrong. That showed how upset she was because she felt betrayed. She believed she had no choice but to kill all of them. That satisfied her. This play shows how betrayal can bring out the worst in people. There are consequences for every action that takes place.
