Oedipus Electronica

An emergency diagnosis crushes Jocasta’s hope of becoming a mother and sends her spiralling into hedonistic free fall. Laius must find a way to bridge the world between fantasy and reality, or risk losing his wife. Oedipus wants to write a story to change the world, but he can’t escape the story that was always written for him.

Pecho Mama’s radical reinvention of Oedipus is a powerhouse production for our times; an intoxicating whirlwind of ecstasy and devastation.Oedipus Electronica is an unapologetic and unflinching journey into the carnal heart of a woman pushed to the edge. Mella Faye’s cinematic sound design evokes London’s domestic grit as we travel through the buzzing streets of Brixton.
