Photo Flash: PICT Classic Theatre's Production of OEDIPUS REX

Plague has struck the city of Thebes. Good King Oedipus sends for a prophet who determines that an unsolved murder is the cause of the gods' displeasure- and Oedipus is the killer.

What follows is an unsettling investigation of the past, which begins at a three-way crossroad and ends in a moment of horrifying self-discovery. It's the age-old tale of the dangers of hubris, told by one of history's original playwrights, and its theme continues to resonate with audiences today: you cannot change your fate. Appropriate for all ages.
