Written by Sophokles and Translated by Anne Carson
A sister’s love. A ruler’s law. A choice that shakes a city. When Antigone defies King Kreon’s order and buries her brother, she ignites a battle between personal conviction and political power. Anne Carson’s fresh, and electric translation brings Sophocles’ timeless tragedy into sharp, urgent focus — a story of power, justice, courage, pride, and the devastating cost of resistance.
This version of Antigone was presented by the University of Alberta in the Bleviss Laboratory Theatre
