Scottish Opera presents a promenade performance of Igor Stravinsky's opera Oedipus Rex, joined by a 100-strong community chorus. The National Museum of Scotland's awe-inspiring Grand Gallery is a spectacular setting for a night of classical drama, exceptional vocal performances and moving orchestral music.

In the ancient city of Thebes, Oedipus has been crowned king, but the Oracle prophesises that misfortune is coming his way – can he defy his future and outrun his fate?

A cathartic exploration of identity, free will, and the human condition, the libretto for Oedipus Rex was written by the pioneering surrealist artist and poet Jean Cocteau. Inspired by Sophocles's ancient drama and imbued with the chorus structure of Greek theatre, this is a timeless piece made anew for audiences today.
