Small Tragedy (Tcg Edition)

While rehearsing Oedipus, turbulent relationships between actors threaten to sabotage the production. As tensions grow stronger and hidden truths emerge, reality begins to emulate Oedipus in staggering ways. Lucas's topical and complex play is a remarkably funny, sharply articulated missive about tragedy in the contemporary world.
