Yes. Oedipus was in the Sphinx story.
That others know who is guilty of Laius' murder and that Oedipus does not know is an example of the dramatically ironic knowledge of the audience in the play "Oedipus Rex" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. -- 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Laius, the previous king of Thebes, is killed without the guilty being sought or punished and without cleansing rituals being carried out. Teiresias the blind prophet, Queen Jocasta's most trusted servant and audiences familiar with the Oedipus story all know in advance that the killer is Oedipus. This is dramatically ironic since Oedipus has no clue that the person he promises to track down and punish is himself.
"Oedipus at Colonus" is the sequel to "Oedipus Rex."Specifically, the story of Theban King Oedipus and his family is told in the course of three plays by Sophocles (496 B.C.E. - 406 B.C.E.). The first play is "Oedipus Rex," which explains why Oedipus loses his sight and his claim to the Theban throne. The second play is "Oedipus of Colonus," which tells of Oedipus' life in exile from Thebes and his death at Colonus, which was where the playwright Sophocles was from. The third play is "Antigone," which tells of what happens to three out of Oedipus' four children with his wife and mother, Theban Queen Jocasta.

Oedipus' recognition scene comes when the shepherd who rescued him from the side of the mountain tells him the story of his infancy. From this story, Oedipus is able to deduce that Jocasta is his mother and that Laius is his father.
