Description

This brilliant gem of a play, a masterpiece of dramatic irony, is sometimes considered the most perfect play ever written. When Oedipus solves the riddle of the Sphinx, he is rewarded with the kingdom and the hand of the Queen, Jocasta. But when he undertakes to rid Thebes of the evil that continues to plague the city, he uncovers a series of horrible truths that lead to his ruin. Featuring Erik Bauersfeld as Oedipus and Beryl Grafton as Jocasta, with Gail Chugg, George Coates, Joseph Gostanian, and Bob Lewis.
