Antigone

Atlas Performing Arts Center
1333 H Street NE Washington

In the war-torn city of Thebes, Antigone is resolved to defy her uncle King Kreon's edict. Her brothers have killed each other in battle, and Kreon, labeling one a traitor, forbids his burial. As Thebes' citizens cower, ignoring prophecies and divine will, Antigone's act of defiance meets headlong with the stubbornness and poor judgement of a fragile King. In a city desperate for peace, who pays the price for pride and obstinance?

"...As the ancient world witnessed the birth of democracy 500 or so years before the common era, the prolific Athenian playwright Sophokles was penning the first written dramas. That these two touchstones of political and cultural advancement were birthed simultaneously in the creatively fertile civilization of Athens is not a surprise."
