The Children of Jocasta

Thebes is a city in conflict-still recovering from the devastating plague that has left its survivors fearful. When its queen consort, Jocasta, falls in love with a handsome, youthful stranger-the mysterious Oedipus-she is plunged into more danger than she knows as rumors of a perilous scandal circulate around her.

An entertaining reimagining of Sophocles' classic plays, Oedipus Tyrannus and Antigone, The Children of Jocasta gives voice to the women who were forced to the background of their own stories.
