Go behind the scenes of DeafWest’s "Oedipus."

Each fall, the Getty Villa hosts an outdoor theater production with one condition: no repeats.

Oedipus is the Villa’s first bilingual production, featuring acclaimed Tony-Award winning Deaf West Theatre and performed in American Sign Language, Protactile, and spoken English. 

The show is different from how you might imagine a classic Greek play. A modern retelling, it’s a psychological thriller and political drama all in one.

"If you’ve never seen a Greek play before and you’ve never been to the Getty Villa, this is a perfect show for your first visit," says director JennyKoons.

"Oedipus" runs from Thursdays to Saturdays September 8–October 1, 8:00 p.m. at the Getty Villa Museum's Outdoor Theater.
