A production and production book of Euripides' Medea freely adapted by Robbinson Jeffers.

This thesis analyzes the life and works of Euripides and the style and meaning of his play Madea for a production in the Mabee Theatre of the Hooper-Schaefer Fine Arts Center at Baylor University. Included in this work is a biography of the playwright. This thesis analyzes the structural elements of the play: idea, dramatic action, character, dialogue, mood and tempo, and given circumstances. In addition, a detailed design approach is discussed. All elements of the play's design are explored: scenery, properties, costumes, make-up, sound, and lighting. Also included are: a light plot, ground plan, make-up plates and various costume plates. The final chapter is a prompt book. Found in the appendix is the pre-production publicity and a copy of the program.
