Yes, the tragedy of 'Oedipus Rex' is understandable because of its cooperative writing style. The conversations among the characters are clear. One of the roles of the chorus is commenting on the action. Sometimes those comments include references to Greek mythology that may not be understood easily by reading and stage going audiences. But even with mythological references, the chorus still simplifies the actions in straightforward ways.
