EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment from a theatrical production of Sophocles' timeless tragedy, "Oedipus Rex," staged by the students of Berkeley College in California, in the year 1912. The image finds King Oedipus (center) on the permanent Greek Theatre stage, deep in contemplation as Teiresias, the enigmatic seer (right), approaches him, possessed by the divine revelations that will ultimately upend the monarch's life. The students' dedication to the ancient Greek text is palpable, as they transport their audience back to the land of Thebes, where the play's complex themes of fate, prophecy, and self-discovery unfold. The bust of Sophocles (left) gazes upon the scene, a testament to the enduring influence of the great Greek tragedian whose work continues to resonate with contemporary audiences. The students' commitment to bringing this ancient text to life on stage is a testament to the power of theatre as a means of exploring the human condition and the universal themes that transcend time and place. The theatrical production of "Oedipus Rex" at Berkeley College represents a rich and enduring tradition of theatrical innovation and excellence. The students' passionate appeals to the audience, their immersive performances, and their dedication to the text serve as a reminder of the transformative power of theatre, and the timeless allure of the stories that continue to captivate us.
