When her dead brother is decreed a traitor, his body left unburied beyond the city walls, Antigone refuses to accept this most severe of punishments. Defying her uncle who governs, she dares to say 'No'. Forging ahead with a funeral alone, she places personal allegiance before politics, a tenacious act that will trigger a cycle of destruction.
Renowned for the revelatory nature of his work, Ivo van Hove first enthralled London audiences with his ground-breaking Roman Tragediesseen at the Barbican in 2009. Drawing on his 'ability to break open texts calcified by tradition' (Guardian), the director now turns to a classic Greek masterpiece.Languages:EnglishPublisher:Methuen DramaISBN-13:9781350344396ISBN-10:1350344397UPC:9781350344396Book Category:Young Adult FictionBook Subcategory:FantasySize:7.40 x 1.90 x 0.20 inchesWeight:0.15Product ID:SCG9DCPHHY
