It beautifully made the ancient play come alive for me. The dance was mesmerizing, and I think for the first time for me the Greek chorus had its intended impact. The problem of rationalaity and irrationality, the Gods and the individual and society, wow, so wonderfully made lucid. I loved it. Start to finish. I loved each actor. I loved the parts and the whole.

Oedipus was gripping right from the start, which was an abrupt loud beginning that even scared much of the audience. The choreography was outstanding and emphasized the mood of the show alongside the rhythmic dark and suspenseful droning music. Of course having very renowned actors performing was a stand-out part. Rami played the character Oedipus with intensity. An award-winning production.
