The opera Medea is one of the masterpieces of French opera art of the turn of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. Its author, Luigi Cherubini, created a work comparable in scale to the ancient Greek myth. Kerubini's "Medea", which is among the greatest opera tragedies, requires vocal mastery and vivid acting talent from performers.

At the Musical Theater, Medea is performed in an Italian translation by Carlo Zangarini with recitatives by Franz Lachner.
