Director Robert Icke's electrifying contemporary reimagining of Sophocles' ancient tragedy, transplanted to the world of modern politics. Set on election night, a populist candidate named Oedipus makes two fateful promises—to release his birth certificate and to investigate the death of his predecessor—that set in motion an unstoppable unraveling of truth. Starring Olivier Award winner Mark Strong and Academy Award nominee Lesley Manville, the production opened on Broadway in the fall of 2025 to widespread critical acclaim for its urgency and psychological power.
