ANTIGONICK, by 2018 Inga Maren Otto Fellow Anne Carson, is a translation of Sophocles’ Antigone. The original text tells the story of Antigone challenging the injustice of men to obey the laws of the gods and follow her heart, defying the royal edict not to bury the body of her brother, Polynices. Exploring the struggle between the individual and the state, this elegant tragedy about tyrannical power and civil disobedience is considered to be Sophocles’ masterpiece and has become synonymous with political protest. ANTIGONICK is directed by Robert Currie, and features members of the local community.
