Description Dubbing this new interpretation of the Oedipus myth a 'clubfoot mashup', Chris Ryan throws a series of perspectives into the mix. Oedipus Wrecks is a detective story and a learning play for the Polis. We watch this upwardly mobile guy avoiding his past while not being particularly happy with the present state of things. What exactly is he running away from? Clouded by envy and fear, will he ever see how his actions so deeply wound those he holds close?
