Oedipus Rex

Overview

Driven by an unrelenting pursuit of truth, Oedipus peels back the layers of his own harrowing past, uncovering a devastating destiny: the murder of his father and the marriage to his mother. Sir Tyrone Guthrie's refined adaptation of Sophocles' tragedy honors its ancient roots, with performers donning masks as they would have in classical Greece. This striking choice amplifies the drama, transforming a timeless tale of fate and blindness into a hauntingly authentic theatrical experience.
