ALL OUR TRAGIC VOLUME TWO: POLITICS

VOLUME ONE:  POLITICS

A NEW GENERATION TAKES ON THEBES LEGACY OF CURSES. FAMILY FUEDES AND FAMILY SECRETS, EXILES AND HOMECOMINGS. 

Themes: Justice, Public good, and the weight of choice.

Rebellion is in the air in Cadmus' crumbling kingdom resulting in violence and murder. The fallout will resonate for generations to come as Thebes navigates waring siblings, cursed prophesies, and bad decisions coming home to roost. 

140 mintues with a short intermission 

A story of the end of the world four times over.

Across its four volumes, All Our Tragic tells the story of a civilization trying—again and again–to outgrow its own pain, only to rediscover that grief, ambition, love, and violence echo through every generation. It is the story of a family that becomes a nation, of a nation that becomes a myth, and of a myth that becomes a mirror, forcing us to watch humanity evolve and unravel at the same time. It is the story of parents trying to save their children, children trying to escape their parents, gods arguing with fate, mortals arguing with gods, and the haunting truth that every attempt to break the cycle risks starting a new one.

Taken together, the four volumes trace a great tragic loop—from the rise of flawed heroes, to the collapse of their world.
