​​From the critically-acclaimed production company Direct Theatre Collective comes a brand new original musical: MONSTER. Based on the somewhat unknown, often forgotten, story of Medusa - the Gorgon girl turned hideous beast. Many know the legend of the snake-headed man-killing leviathan - but who was Medusa before she was cursed. In MONSTER, finally, Medusa gets a voice in her own story.

​

Guided by our Greek chorus of Muses through this surprising tale of all times, MONSTER will make you question everything you thought you knew about the infamous Medusa.

​

With a powerhouse creative pairing at the helm, award-winning writer Jill Raymond (HYSTERIA and verisimilitude) and musical virtuoso Florence Reiher (Worth the Weight), MONSTER is now undergoing development into a two-act musical with full cast and orchestra arrangement. 

MONSTER

An original musical written by Jill Raymond and Florence Reiher.

Music Composition/Arrangement: Florence Reiher
