During an off-Broadway production of Medea, the ancient Greek tragedy begins to blend into the lives of the four individuals most deeply involved in the show: the Director, the Diva, the Ingenue, and the Leading Man, along with the influences of five legendary figures from history whose desires also permeate the play.  All these lives intertwine in a passionate, dramatic, and entertaining view of theater life in New York City in the 1990s.
