Man and Boy

7th February – 11th February 2012
Oedipus the King
By Sophocles
Directed by Dean Hempstead & Kat Tokley
13th March – 17th March 2012
The city of Thebes is dying from a disease sent by the God Apollo. King Oedipus, with his Queen Jocasta at his side is desperate to find the former Kings murderer to lift the curse and save the city, as well as himself. However, the path he takes is very rocky and as more truth is revealed, the more he sees that his life was destined for a terrible fate.
The translation of this ancient, tragic tale we are using has given us the opportunity to bring the story into context for the 21st century. To play on the emotions of a modern audience and allow them to feel the same shock and power, as an audience would have felt watching it 2000 years ago. We have revised the use of masks, to show that we still rely on them in social situations when we would rather not see what is in front of us, when we would rather look the other way.Oedipus the King is a dark, testing play which will unnerve its audience and challenge them, dragging it out of the classroom and onto the stage kicking and screaming.13-17th March 2012 19.45
