Direct from a sold-out, record-breaking, Olivier Award-winning West End run, Sophocles’ epic tragedy is transformed into an explosive political thriller. Visionary director Robert Icke – the youngest Olivier Award-winning director in history – reimagines Ancient Greek mythology to bring the secrets of the past bursting into the present. Starring Olivier Award winner Mark Strong (“Kingsman”) and Academy Award® nominee Lesley Manville (“The Crown”), Oedipus on Broadway is “a gasp-inducing tale of truth and lies that sets the stage on fire” (The Guardian).
