Antigone (3).png

October 16 - November 8

Written by

Sophocles

Directed by Ian R.Q. Slater

After Oedipus' self-exile, his sons Eteocles and Polynices engage in a civil war for the Theban throne, which results in both brothers dying while fighting each other. Oedipus' brother-in-law and new Theban ruler Creon orders the public honoring of Eteocles and the public shaming of Thebes' traitor Polynices. The play follows the attempts of their sister Antigone to bury the body of Polynices, going against the decision of her uncle Creon and placing her relationship with her brother above human laws.
