or What Really Might Have Happened to Oedipus by Friedrich Durrenmatt adapted for radio by Hans Hausmann and Martin Esslin.
Are our lives governed by pre-ordained fate, determined by the Inexorable laws of nature, or do we live by pure coincidence, chance, and accident? The Swiss Playwright, Friedrich Durrenmatt, poses this question in re-telling and rethinking the age-old story of Oedipus in the form of a philosophical fable, halfway between drama and Platonic dialogue.
Directed by Martin Esslin (Robert Eddison is a member of the RSC)
