Oedipus and Plague

Tiresias summons up the dead

Excerpt from Scene 10: Blind

"Fury in his voice.

Face of fiery passion.

Eyes so fixed they could be coming out of their sockets by themselves.

Wild looks.

Madness.

Groan – terrifying roar.

Thrusts his fingers into his eyes.

Wrenching from their roots he tears his eyes out.

Fingers bent.

Fingers still probing the open holes – nails scratching the open cavities.

Holes  gaped hollow where the eyes had been.

Looks toward the heavens scanning the sky.

Tears away the last remaining shreds"
