  3. Oedipus El Rey


Luis Alfaro reimagines Sophocles’ classic in his acclaimed and electrifying Oedipus El Rey,set in the heart of Los Angeles. Oedipus dreams of rewriting his own story — but liberation comes at a price: can he truly escape the destiny laid out before him? What’s fate, and what’s just the system? A searing tale of love, family, and prophecy, Oedipus El Rey blends ancient myth with modern urgency and Chicano swagger with swaths of sly humor. Artistic Director Loretta Greco, who led the acclaimed premiere ofOedipus El Rey at The Magic Theatre, creates a production especially for Boston.
