Tim Ashley 🏳️🌈"Spectateurs, vous allez entendre une version latine d'Oedipe Roi ......"
Igor Stravinsky conducts his own Oedipus rex at the Théâtre des Champs-Élysées in Paris in 1952, with Jean Cocteau (who directed the production) ranting away at a re-vamped version of his own narratrion, the great Léopold Simoneau as Oedipus, and Eugenia Zareska as Jocasta.
Oedipus rex was first performed in Paris #OTD in 1927.
