Conversations: The Next Great Athenian Blockbuster, Euripidean Competition w/ CW Marshall

What if Antigone had a happy ending, or if Oedipus was blind before he ever reached the city of Thebes? Liv speaks with Toph Marshall about the lost but not forgotten fragments of Euripides' Oedipus and Antigone. Submit your questions to the quarterly Q&A episodes! CW/TW: far too many Greek myths involve assault. Given it's fiction, and typically involves gods and/or monsters, I'm not as deferential as I would be were I referencing the real thing.
