Antigone

  • Mar 18 – 21, 2026

In Jean Anouilh’s celebrated adaptation of the ancient Greek tragedy by Sophocles, Antigone makes a forbidden choice: to bury her brother Polynices, defying the order of King Creon. Urged toward caution by her sister Ismene, Antigone instead follows her conscience, setting in motion a series of personal and political consequences.
Rooted in classical myth yet strikingly contemporary in its themes, this powerful drama explores loyalty, authority, and moral conviction. Presented in French.
