Oedipus El Rey" premieres Friday, NOVEMBER 13 at 5 p.m. Pacific and continuing on demand through JANUARY 20, 2021. Free to the public and will be available on demand at www.centertheatregroup.org/digitalstage/digital-stage/luis-alfaros-trilogy/.
The multicamera, virtually produced reading of Luis Alfaro's "Oedipus El Rey," a modern adaptation of a Greek classic which is part of the "The Greek Trilogy of Luis Alfaro" which is presented on Center Theatre Group's Digital Stage in partnership with The Getty. As he approaches the end of a lengthy prison sentence, Oedipus is ready to taste his long-awaited freedom. But physical liberation comes at a price, and life on the outside proves its own kind of prison ruled by a cruel and violent fate. Based on Sophocles' classic tale, "Oedipus El Rey" is an urgent examination of modern institutions, social barriers, and the power of storytelling for those bold enough to challenge the gods of our time.
