Styled after the tough-guy detectives of Raymond Chandler's novels, this new radio play takes the tragic Greek hero down a couple pegs as he navigates today's dark and dangerous streets. But this American Oedipus won't accept his fate! Featuring an original jazz score by renowned bassist Jay Leonhart, Oedipus Noir was first performed before a live audience at the West End Gate in New York City. It was later broadcast in January 1994 on WBAI-FM in New York City.
