I am currently in this play, so I’ve read it countless times since the initial time I read it and forgot to log it. I have to say, it’s really growing on me. I love anything related to Ancient Greece, so this was a very exciting and captivating read for me. I’m biased, as I am currently playing the role, but Teiresias is my favorite guy ever. He’s so sassy to Creon (with absolutely good reason), and he just comes in, delivers a dark and damning prophecy, then dips. Legend behavior.
