Among papyruses found in Egypt in 1907 was a fragment of a satyr play by Sophocles. Tony Harrison 's new play, The Trackers of Oxyrhynchus, fuses the bawdy vigour of the original with his savage indignation at the lot of London's contemporary 'satyrs'. Paul Allen discovers how the play is being adapted for the National Theatre.
