Oedipus talking to the priest of Zeus and citizens of Thebes is what happens first in "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. -- 405 B.C.E.).

Specifically, the priest and Thebans are gathered around altars set up outside the main entrance to the royal Palace of Thebes. Oedipus steps outside. Oedipus makes clear in what he says that he speaks to everyone present. But in terms of asking questions and reacting to statements, Oedipus interacts with the priest of Zeus.
