Tickets $10, and available for reservation by using the form below.
It doesn’t matter what choices Oedipus makes, he is destined to fulfill the horrendous prophecy of killing his father and marrying his mother. His fate cannot be escaped, or can it? Oedipus will turn to the audience to decide his fate in this “Choose Your Own Adventure” interactive drinking play*. You are our oracles as we re-write the story of Oedipus where no one knows (not even us!) how the play might end. Will Oedipus finally defeat his prophecy? Or will he mark his place in history forever as the original mother***er?
*This play elicits drinking to include the audience in our absurd social experiment, but drinking from audience members is not required for the piece. That decision will be up to the audience members themselves.
This production contains language and themes intended for a mature audience and elicits audience drinking. Drinking is not required.
