CW: in this episode, Rhodessa does talk about difficult themes including ab*se and dr*g-taking; the views and opinions expressed in this podcast are those of the speaker, and do not necessarily reflect those of the CA.

Performer, teacher, director Rhodessa Jones is Co-Artistic Director of the critically acclaimed, performance company Cultural Odyssey.  She founded and directs The Medea Project: Theater for Incarcerated Women, an award-winning performance workshop committed to the personal and social transformation of women.

In this fascinating episode, she tells the story of her work and how it has been interwoven with classical themes; how the minotaur is paralleled in American society; the project 'Baby Medea'; dramatic performances in Russia; and her creative inspiration.
