Antigone Premiers March 1, 2024!

Event Calendar

Antigone!

March 1, 2, 8, 9, 10*, 14, 15, 16, 17*

From the Theban plays of Sophocles, Antigone was translated by David R. Slavitt.

Directed by Tara Wibrew

A young man lies dead in the city center, denied burial by the king’s decree. Only Antigone will stand in the face of this injustice–but at what cost? The laws of gods and men are put to the test in Sophocles’s tale of courage, duty, and the undeniable shift of cultural tides.
