'The Infernal Machine' is an experimental play of the modern French theatre which re-tells the ancient Greek legend of Oedipus, the tragic son of a king, who was fated by the gods to murder his father and marry his mother. The play is set in and near the city of Thebes in Boeotia, about two thousand years ago.
