A fresh, contemporary adaptation of Sophokles' tragedy from T.
Eliot Prize-winning poet Anne Carson.
When her dead brother is decreed a traitor, Antigone refuses to allow his body to be left unburied beyond the city walls.
Defying her uncle who governs, she forges ahead with a funeral alone, placing personal allegiance before politics, a tenacious act that will trigger a cycle of destruction.
