Oedipus in Seattle is touring in late May!

Oedipus in Seattle is an auto-theater mashup of Sophocles’ Oedipus Rex and the 1993 rom-com Sleepless in Seattle. In this unconventional adaptation, two different actors take the stage each night without having rehearsed or read the script. Instructions from a voice in their headphones will guide them through the piece as they assume the roles of Oedipus, Jocasta, Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks, with the casting decided by random chance.

After winning an overall audience choice award in the 2022 Philadelphia Fringe Festival, we’re going on the road, where the show will feature actors living in each city we visit!

Some of the music from the show is featured on the recent debut release from ENDINGS, Douglas Vento’s solo experimental electronic project. Music can be streamed at www.endingsphl.bandcamp.com and tapes will be available to purchase after the performance.
