Oedipus and a play

This week we finished reading Oedipus Rex by Sophocles. At the end his wife kills herself because Oedipus finds out the truth of his past. I think that she could have found a way to deal with the problem that did not involve her taking her own life. Then after finding his wife dead Oedipus ripped out his eyes with her golden brooches. I think that he could have found a less painful way of punishing himself for killing his father and marring his mother. I thought that this was a pretty good tragedy over all. This week we also went to see a play that the drama kids worked on. I thought that it had some parts that were a little funny in it and they made me laughs a little. At the beginning I did not understand it and found it boring. But as it went on I started to understand it. There were some parts that made other kids around me laugh but I did not find them that funny at all. I think that over all the drama kids did a very good job in the play. Also I enjoyed watching the play even when it did not make me laugh.
