About this Event
OEDIPUS IN SEATTLE by skullsdotcom

Fresh off of winning the Fringie Award for theatre in the 2022 Philadelphia Fringe Festival, Oedipus in Seattle is an auto-theatre mash-up of Oedipus Rex and 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. Oedipus in Seattle is a show about destiny, and the uncertainty of living a life without one.
