Oedipus

The Hypocrites at The Building Stage
412 N. Carpenter Ave., Chicago

Sean Graney’s new adaptation tells the story of a compassionate, albeit arrogant, leader whose desire to heal his people causes his own demise. The promenade staging transforms the traditionally passive chorus into an actively engaging audience experience. The Hypocrites reinvent this 2,500-year-old play into a contemporary and thrilling theatrical event. Then stay for drinks and informal discussion with director Sean Graney and the cast.  Please note that the show contains haze, strobe, brief moments of complete darkness and that you are encouraged to move around the performing space. Run time: 55 minutes (no intermission)

Event begins at 8 p.m. Stay afterwards for drinks and discussion.

TICKETS ONLY $20
