Sophekles Oedipus the Tyrant is the story of a man who wants to be king and, in his search for the culprits of the epochal crisis, eviscerates himself and thus becomes a tyrant. He wanted to bring clarity to the city of Thebes. And bequeaths destruction, suffering, pain, deep sorrow - and rage - to the city and his daughters Ismene and Antigone.
