Oedipus the King follows the story of a man named Oedipus who tries to escape fate. Before the play is even started

"Daughter of the King" is a moving stage play with an inspiring message of the amazing power of love and the art of self-forgiveness. It is a revamping familiarity of promise and recovery.
