Sophocles' Oedipus is a classic tragedy, but Rich Orloff reimagines it as a comedy. Here, Oedipus takes charge of his fate, engaging in politics with the people, Creon, Tiresias, and Jocasta—his mother and wife. The play explores themes of social, personal, and bodily politics, reflecting contemporary global issues through humor. This reinterpretation transforms the well-known tragic story into a satirical take on destiny and power.
