some reviews

"A Medea that is not expected, fragile and frightening at the same time, mother and girl, noble and mad, far from the hieratic interpretations we are used to. A Medea that does not need makeup or majestic scenographic apparatus, but prefers essentiality. Leonardo Lidi's direction is dry, all aimed at enhancing the art of interpretation and identification... And the work on the costumes by Aurora Damanti goes in the same direction, proceeding by subtraction and aiming for essentiality.". (...)

(Francesca Maria Rizzotti, https://www.klpteatro.it/medea-lidi-notari-intervista)

(...) "How enchanting and captivating is this investigation into love through dramaturgy, which the director has carried out by crossing the ages and now arriving at one of Euripides' darkest tragedies. So full of love." (...)

"The protagonist appears here as a destroyed woman, but Leonardo Lidi shifts the focus from the murder of her children to humanity overwhelmed, through a reduction that highlights the most modern features of the work. ". (...)
