incestuous rex--sorry, oedipus rex is the best tragedy i've read.

was this the hamilton for ancient greece? it's a play about a historical figure with singing. so i think this is the hamilton of antiquity.

I read this play for my literatura class and I loved it. I don’t read many plays but I think I’m gonna start giving it a chance.
