But perhaps "Oedipus " is that , all by itself . And the spendthrift transience of theatrical art makes it the more precious ' - Christopher Rawson , Post-Gazette .com

This quote from a review of the play Oedipus is merely true . From almost 24 centuries , Sophocles remained a living dead playwright of this play . Oedipus had been repeatedly acted

by different actors , different nationalities , and different races in different places and theaters Each of the plays portrayed only a story of a son who unknowingly killed his father and married his mother . The tragic plot of the play gives am embellish emotion to the audience by which no matter how many different people in the stage play the Oedipus , still , the story and the beauty of the play is the Oedipus itself

The differences of the actors , they are just the ones who adds color and additional value in the play . The way the actresses and the actors play their roles , it matters most is the essence of the story that had been established ever since the Oedipus was written . Sophocles , himself had give the real and best motive and arts to the play he had written

The interpretation of the stage plays , nowadays , are just the revision and medium for keeping the legacy of the Sophocles immortal . As it is written down and acted , portrayed and imitated , in a nutshell , the Oedipus , the story itself , is the one that give itself elixir of life existence in literature , those modern plays , are just the medium of reincarnation
