The ancient Greek city of Thebes is the setting of the play "Oedipus Rex" by ancient Greek playwright Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).
Specifically, the on-stage action takes place outside the main entrance to the royal Palace of Theban King Oedipus. Off-stage action takes place within the palace. There also are references to important actions and events at places other than the city, such as Teiresias' house, the shrines to Apollo and at Delphi, nearby mountains, and the city of Corinth.
