Oedipus at Colonus by Sophocles
With this brilliant new translation of Oedipus at Colonus, Nicholas Rudall completes his presentation of the Oedipus trilogy. This play forms a bridge between the events in Oedipus the King and Antigone (both also available in the Plays for Performance series), completing the focus on Oedipus. It begins with the arrival of Oedipus in Colonus after years of wandering; it ends with Antigone setting off toward her own fate in Thebes.
