In this powerful adaptation of Sophocles' tragedy, Antigone, the daughter of Oedipus, defies King Creon’s decree by choosing to bury her brother Polynices, who has been denied a proper burial. This act of rebellion seals her fate and explores themes of authority, duty, and individual conscience. Originally staged in Paris during the Nazi occupation, Anouilh’s interpretation resonated deeply, reflecting resistance and the struggle against oppression. The cast features talents like Elizabeth Marvel as Antigone and Francis Guinan as Creon, bringing this poignant story to life in an engaging performance.
