OEDIPUS REX Plays At The Stone Cottage Theatre 4/2 - 4/25
Oedipus Rex tells the story of Oedipus and his quest to discover the cause for the plague affecting Thebes. His search leads him to a series of revelations, each more horrific then the next culminating in the most intense and disturbing ending of any play ever written.
This new translation by Ian Johnston is dynamic, yet doesn’t loose sight of the beauty of Sophocles’ poetry while at the same time making it accessible to modern audiences. Mr. Johnston has been interviewed on NPR about his work as a Greek scholar and translator and we are thrilled to be able to present this seminal new translation. He has received countless accolades for his work and we are pleased to be the first company he’s granted permission to mount a production of his new translation.
