The production is directed by Eilin O'Dea, with Rhiannon Ling as Assistant Director. Brian Holman is the Music Director. The set is designed by Dahlia Barakat. Dan Demello will serve as the Press Agent.
The production interns are Tracy Anderson, Ida Battilana, Isaac Gonzalez, and Julia Watson.
A note from Fusion Theatre Company founder, star, and director of Medea, Eilin O'Dea: "Fusion Theatre is, to the best of our knowledge, the only Theatre Company of its kind in the United States. A Company that draws on a tiny pool of classical actors who are also Opera singers and perform both genres as part of a production that seamlessly merges these two great art forms. We decided to produce Medea as our next show as we feel that it will be the culmination of all our work to date. We have a powerhouse play Medea where we get to merge an equally powerful Opera by the same title. This production will bring together these two giants of the operatic and theatre stages in what we believe will be the ultimate theatrical experience."
