The Uprooting Medea Tour

Dartmouth College welcomes Khameleon Productions to campus with their multimedia project, the Uprooting Medea tour, curated and produced by artist Shivaike Shah.

Khameleon Productions, co-sponsered by the Brown Arts Institute (BAI), presents the Uprooting Medea tour, which will be visiting Dartmouth College Thursday, March 3 through Saturday, March 5th, 2022.

The four-month tour, curated and produced by BAI Visiting Artist Shivaike Shah, will commence at Brown University as part of the inaugural Interrogating the Classics Series, in collaboration with the BAI and the Brown Departments of Classics and Theater Arts & Performance Studies. It will continue across 12 states, visiting 30 of the nation's leading colleges and universities. Khameleon Productions will visit classes, work with students in script workshops, and participate in roundtable conversations with students and staff around mutliple topics related to the project. At the conclusion of the tour, Khameleon will return to Brown to host a virtual gathering for particpating institutions which will make space for an intercollegiate exchange of experiences around the project, including appearances by special guests who will lead discussions interrogating the performance history and legacy of Medea, and the Classics more broadly.
