Description

In The Gods Are Not to Blame, Ola Rotimi masterfully retells the classic Greek tragedy of Oedipus Rex in a rich Yoruba setting. When a child is born under a cursed prophecy, fate sets in motion a chain of events that challenge the limits of free will, tradition, and human judgment. This powerful drama explores destiny, identity, and the consequences of ignoring ancestral warnings in a society ruled by both kings and gods.
