Medea and Jason

Jason is certainly not a name I would have associated with Greek mythology... £15 for a ticket to see Helen McCrory as Medea at the National theatre. No interval, running time 90 minutes - perfect for me and my short attention span! Fabulous stage set, great music, gripping tragic story. I really enjoyed it! The only bit I didn't like was the weird, modern dancing of the people of Corinth. It just seemed unnecessary - but maybe I missed the point?

And before that a quick dinner at Auberge just outside Waterloo station and another Tastecard restaurant:

Asparagus with hollandaise and Steak Frites
