Oedipus At Colonus

Description

Oedipus The King

6th – 8th October 2022
The Perranwell Centre, Cornwall, TR3 7JU

This play was written for performance in Athens in 400 BC, and was set about nine hundred years earlier. Is it drama, is it history, is it myth? This was Sophocles most personal play, being set in his home village and dealing with the death of a flawed hero, written in the year before his own death. We are tackling this production in a semi-traditional manner, with a cast of eighteen, ranging in age from twelve to our loyal octogenarians. They are enjoying the challenge of tackling a production in unfamiliar style; it may be a very old play but it is new to them and will be new to you, our audience.
