How long must a man endure punishment for a crime he was fated to commit? Carey Perloff's gripping new adaptation fuses Oedipus Tyrannos and Oedipus at Colonus into an extraordinary new look at one of the most elemental tales of power, justice, family and revenge, as the aged Oedipus nears his death and attempts to rewrite his bloody past. Featuring a translation by acclaimed playwright Timberlake Wertenbaker and original music by David Coulter, this Oedipus asks whether we can ever leave the past behind as we reckon with an unsettled present and a dangerous future.
