Technically three plays.
I would say Oedipus Rex leads the pack, followed by Antigone, and finally Colonus. Best to read them back to back to back to Getty he full effect.
The Greek philosophers knew how to make these plays SAD. It’s always fascinating reading these early works that paved the way for so much of the classics and even contemporary literature of the day.
