The Gospel at Colonus (Apollo Theater)Classical Revival
There’s nothing like a Greek tragedy to make sense (and drama) of society’s foibles. After two decades of performances worldwide, the Lee Breuer-Bob Telson adaptation of the Oedipus tragedy, “The Gospel at Colonus” begins its two-week revival at the Apollo Theater this week. This award-winning Broadway hit sets the story of blind King Oedipus in the context of the Pentecostal gospel service, and stars the Bind Boys of Alabama along with several New York gospel choirs. We’re joined today by playwright and director Breuer and composer Telson.
