Who Played Creon in The Gospel at Colonus

Creon is a role in The Gospel at Colonus, a musical that opened Off-Broadway in 2025.

The epic myth of Oedipus is reborn as a Pentecostal ritual that remakes prophecy as testimony and brokenness as transcendence. A man condemned from birth searches for grace. A choir lifts him up. The congregation – the audience – bears witness to his tale. But here, tragedy is not an ending – it’s the road to deliverance. Director, and Pulitzer Prize-finalist, Shayok Misha Chowdhury gathers a powerhouse ensemble to bring this legendary work to life and build a space for us to gather, rejoice, and transform.
