The recent West End revival of Oedipus, adapted and directed by Robert Icke, has set dates for its previously announced 14-week limited Broadway engagement. Performances will begin at Studio 54 beginning October 30. Opening night will be November 13.
Reprising their performances as Oedipus and Jocasta from the West End run will be, respectively, Mark Strong and Lesley Manville. The production won two 2025 Olivier Awards, including Best Actress for Manville and Best Revival of a Play.
Icke鈥檚 production, originally presented in Dutch at Internationaal Theater Amsterdam and subsequently at the Edinburgh International Festival, is set on election night. The polls predict a landslide victory, but everything is about to change.
A ticket presale begins June 24 at 10 AM ET via TodayTix, with general sales beginning June 25 at 10 AM ET.
Icke has re-assembled his London creative team, with the Broadway run to feature set design by Hildegard Bechtler, costume design by Wojciech Dziedzic, lighting design by Natasha Chivers, sound design by Tom Gibbons, and video design by Tal Yarden. Casting is by Julia Horan and Jim Carnahan.
Sonia Friedman Productions, Sue Wagner, John Johnson, and Patrick Catullo are producing in association with Roundabout Theatre Company.
