I think that I could understand ‘Oedipus the King’ to a decent level. The play explores deep themes that demand critical thinking. For example, it delves into the concept of fate, which refers to events that are already determined, and our level of control over our lives. Also, the characters are intriguing. They face complex problems and emotions. Oedipus, for example, tries to uncover his past, while Creon desires power but also has to manage his relationship with Oedipus. Despite the play’s complexity, I enjoyed it because it’s entertaining and raises significant questions. If I had to choose a character to portray in the play, I would choose Creon. He experiences many changes, and it would be interesting to portray his struggles with Oedipus.
