Sophocles Meets Political Power: Robert Icke's Acclaimed OEDIPUS (Édipo) Opens MASP Auditorium
by Claudio Erlichman - Jun 29, 2026
Sophocles' timeless tragedy receives a gripping contemporary reimagining in Robert Icke's internationally acclaimed adaptation, opening July 4 at São Paulo's MASP Auditorium. Directed by Clara Carvalho, the production transforms the ancient myth into a high-stakes political thriller set on election night, as a charismatic candidate's search for the truth threatens to destroy his career, his family, and his identity. Starring Sergio Mastropasqua as Oedipus and Clarisse Abujamra as a newly empowered Jocasta, the Brazilian staging combines psychological suspense with striking contemporary design inspired by Lina Bo Bardi's iconic architecture.

by Alex Freeman - May 11, 2026
This week's theater news spans awards season milestones, legal disputes, labor tensions, and the business challenges facing the art form on both sides of the Atlantic. The 2026 Tony nominations are in — with Schmigadoon! and The Lost Boys leading the pack. Voting is also now open for BroadwayWorld's own Theater Fans' Choice Awards. On a more turbulent note, a fire at the Eugene O'Neill Theatre has shuttered The Book of Mormon through at least May 17, a second lawsuit has been filed against the producers of Cabaret at the Kit Kat Club, and IATSE is accusing the Kennedy Center of using its upcoming temporary closure as cover to permanently eliminate union jobs. Regionally, The Naples Players have secured a multi-year grant to expand paid apprenticeships for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities. And internationally, The Stage examines whether the UK touring sector — where the number of touring plays has fallen 64% since 2019 — can find a path forward through its mounting financial and structural pressures.
