Oedipus Rex is the predecessor to The Gospel at Colonus in the Oedipus Trilogy, and the beginning of the trilogy as a whole. Understanding this seminal, inaugural text serves as a primer to understanding The Gospel at Colonus and the intersecting familial, community, and narrative ties therein.
Oedipus Rex may be a classic "whodunnit" on its surface, but it is most famous for bringing onstage the tangled history of Oedipus and his parentage. The play opens with Thebes in the throes of a plague; the search for the cure to the plague on Thebes turns into the search for the previous king's murderer, and then turns again into the search for Oedipus' own origin, the fateful secret of his birth.
The unexpected twist of the trial into an identity-quest dramatizes the twists and turns that are inherent in Oedipus's own story, the object of discovery. Here is a quick explainer of the Oedipus family tree and the order of events preceding The Gospel at Colonus. One timeline shows the events in their chronological order, and the other represents the order in which they are revealed on stage through the course of the drama.
Ella Wilhelm is a graduate student in Germanic Studies at the University of Chicago. Her research focuses on the idea of the "fall-narrative" in 18th and 19th century German literature and thought. She is also interested in the theory and practice of drama, and was the dramaturg and lead translator for a 2018 production of Heinrich von Kleist's The Broken Jug at the University of Chicago.

human spirit is far harder to defeat than the body." -Chicago Tribune
★★★½ "PROFOUNDLY MOVING... Randle-Bent propels the dialogue with a clarity that shines like a knife and an urgency that can’t be denied." -Sun-Times
Reader Recommended "The Island is a RIVETING, philosophically sophisticated play that is a MUST-SEE for fans of meaty theater." -Chicago Reader
John and Winston are political prisoners on South Africa’s infamous Robben Island, spending their days toiling at grueling, futile tasks in the prison’s quarry. At night, they secretly rehearse a two-man version of Antigone and find solace and strength in their burgeoning friendship. The Island is at once a sobering glimpse into the social, physical, and psychological wounds of Apartheid; a lesson in the complex work of liberation; and a testament to the transformative power of theatre.
Associate Artistic Director Gabrielle Randle-Bent makes her solo directorial debut at Court, bringing her vision of resistance and resilience to the stage, featuring actors Ronald L. Conner and Kai A. Ealy.
Running Time: Approximately 105 minutes

Soulful and stirring, this one-of-a-kind theatrical event breathes new life into the Oedipus myth with a score of powerful gospel music. A bold collaboration from an extraordinary team led by Mark J.P. Hood and Charles Newell, The Gospel at Colonus builds upon the strengths and experiences of its artists to bring this redemptive musical celebration to life on Chicago’s South Side.
Accessible performances:
The Gospel at Colonus is sponsored by The Poetry Foundation, the National Endowment for the Arts, and Gustavo Bamberger and Martha Van Haitsma.
Based on an adaptation of Sophocles' Oedipus at Colonus in the version by Robert Fitzgerald and incorporating passages from both Sophocles' Oedipus Rex and Antigone in the versions by Dudley Fitts and Robert Fitzgerald, which are published as The Oedipus Cycle of Sophocles, a Harvest/HBJ Book, Harcourt Brace Jovanovich, Inc.

Mild-mannered sisters Martha and Abby Brewster live in their spacious Victorian home in a quiet neighborhood in Brooklyn with an eccentric nephew, Teddy. Famed for their hospitality, Martha and Abby are adored by their neighbors and frequently entertain guests. But when their other nephew, Mortimer, discovers his aunts’ macabre secrets, a hilarious chain of events ensue in this character-driven farce. Resident Artist Ron OJ Parson directs this beloved American classic, bringing much-needed humor and healing laughter to the stage in Court’s 2022/23 Season opener.
Approximate running time: 2 hours and 30 minutes, including a 15-minute intermission.
Sponsored by Allstate and Gustavo Bamberger and Martha Van Haitsma.
Ron OJ Parson’s residency is made possible by the Joyce Foundation.

When Val seizes on a new relationship as a path to escape the crushing bonds of work, poverty, and family, she is confronted with the explosive repercussions of her decision. Employing astonishing theatrical imagery, Churchill’s Fen shows with grace and sly humor how the intricate pressures of gender and class both shape and distort the characters of women. Jeff Award-winning director Vanessa Stalling (Photograph 51) returns to Court Theatre to bring her striking clarity and fresh perspective to the path-breaking text that won Churchill the Susan Smith Blackburn Prize and cemented her reputation as one of our greatest living playwrights. Download the program here. Running Time: Approximately 90 minutes, presented without intermission Accessible performances:“FASCINATING; any fan of Churchill's plays will likely feel this is an evening well spent.” -Chicago Tribune ★★★½ "Thanks to a stellar production from Vanessa Stalling, directing a CRAZY-GOOD CAST, this 40-year-old play comes across as STRIKINGLY CONTEMPORARY." -Sun-TimesReader Recommended "Throughout the play the women sing, sometimes alone but best of all together, creating temporary harmonies, a loveliness seemingly from nothing, breathed, voiced, created, experienced, then gone, a vibration that passes through like a ghost of a HOPE that can’t quite exist in this universe yet somehow does." - Chicago Reader
