The Barnard/Columbia Ancient Drama Group Presents Sophocles’ Oedipus at Colonus

What's Happening

In the final installment of the Theban trilogy, an elderly Oedipus—guided by his dutiful daughter, Antigone—finds refuge in the tiny Athenian suburb of Colonus. Our production foregrounds Oedipus' embodiment as a disabled character and how the performance of his disability allows him movement into social and cultic spaces previously closed off to him. Performed in Ancient Greek with English subtitles.

Tickets are available on Eventbrite
