Extract

Oedipus Rex is a classic Greek play, fitting the Aristotelian mould of tragedy. In my production of this piece, I would like to set it in a post-apocalyptic, futuristic stetting. In doing this, I would like to draw parallels between modern audiences and the original role of the audience for which the play was written.
I am also incorporating the ideas of Artaud, namely his target of Theatre of Cruelty;
'Theatre will never be itself again, that is to say will never be able to form truly illusive means, unless it provides the audience with truthful distillations of dreams where its taste for crime, its erotic obsessions, its savageness, its fantasises, its utopian sense of life and objects, even its cannibalism, do not gush out on an illusory make-believe, but on an inner level.'
