At last! An exciting adaptation of one of the great Greek tragedies by Sophocles, ideal for high school and college groups. This adaptation of Antigone preserves the power and poetry of the original classic drama but offers an experience that is immediate, important, and accessible for both actors and audiences.
The timeless story of a young woman fighting to find her identity and defend the honor of her family and beliefs against a world filled with hate, intolerance, and violence raises questions as contemporary as today’s headlines. What really distinguishes right from wrong, innocence from guilt, good from evil? What is our responsibility to ourselves, to our community, to our world?
Antigone confronts these questions with vibrant action, musical language, intense relationships, and a healthy sense of humor as it sweeps us into a chaotic war-torn world to experience the conflict between Antigone and her Uncle Creon, whose political power threatens to tear her away from all she loves.
