Everyone's favorite husband-son is back for more in Oedipus at Colonus.

This play isn't a standalone text: if you really want to get to grips with it, it helps to get down with Oedipus the King. The students will majorly benefit from knowing what happened to Oedipus in Thebes. Otherwise, all they'll see is some random miserable dude wandering around.
