that can stem from that
– when we don’t know
where we’re from or
we’re fi ghting to be a part
of something. I think we
see it with immigrants
and we also see it with
what’s going on with
White America.
So Medea was from a
place originally and then
was removed from it. Af-
ter she helped Jason (her
husband who leaves her
for the Greek princess of
Corinth) and the Argo-
nauts perform all these
heroic feats, she ended
up in this land where she
was “the other.” In the
original text, a lot of the
characters use this lan-
guage against her as “the
other.”
So actually, that origi-

nal is an immigrant story,
but it’s also a tragic love
story that does result in
revenge. The Greek peo-
ple have a big connection
to land. And a lot of trag-
edy happened — even the
Trojan War — when peo-
ple were removed from
land. It’s what caused
a lot of bloodshed. So I
actually think (this ver-
sion) is right on. I think
Luis has found the root
of what this story actu-
ally means. I would say
the major diff erence be-
tween the two is that is
does not focus on the re-
venge. Instead, “Mojada”
focuses on what happens
to a person when every-
thing is stripped from
them, starting with their
land and going to their
family. It’s been interest-
ing to be able to explore
that classic.
TSN: What kind of
training or research did
you undergo to prepare
for the lead role of Me-
dea?
SZV: Of course reading
the classic is a must, to
understand the root of
this epic tale. But there
have been some really
interesting studies that
have gone on. Amnesty
International put out a

report on immigrant and
migrant patterns — and it
reported that 60 percent
of Central American and
Mexican women coming
up north into the United
States were victims of
sexual assault. Then in
2014, there was another
investigation that said it
was about 80 percent of
women that are undergo-
ing this. So I would dive
into a lot of reports about
women who migrated up.
For the performances in
Oregon, I read this book
called “The Devil’s High-
way.” It’s a fantastic non-
fi ction account which fo-
cuses on 26 men coming
north from Mexico, and
it really gets into the day-
to-day of their journey. I
believe only 14 of them
survived. So that book
got into the elemental
struggles of what it takes
to come across, in terms
of water and weather
and heat stroke. It helped
me get into the actual
physical journey of it,
because one of the key
scenes of the play, about
a third into it, is the bor-
der-crossing scene.
TSN: Given the ongoing
immigration debate in
the U.S., do you fi nd “Mo-
jada” to be more relevant

now that is was when you
fi rst performed it in Los
Angeles back in 2015?
SZV: Absolutely! I feel
like it’s almost found it-
self and its relevance, un-
fortunately because of
what’s happening right
now. But what’s happen-
ing right now has been
happening for centuries,
yet we have this histori-
cal amnesia. I have to say,
the production in Oregon
gave those of us in the
play a really wonderful
interaction with the au-
dience, because there’s
something special about
the Oregon Shakespeare
Festival. When people go
to see shows there they
hang for a couple of days.
So you end up interact-
ing with the audience in
a way that you don’t with
most regional theater. So
we got to do a lot of amaz-
ing talkbacks, I got to
work with students. (The
themes) are everywhere
– they’re intergenera-
tional and global. It’s the
story of “the other” and
that journey to fi nd safe-
ty and home and connec-
tion.
