Description
Antigone is a powerful drama that explores the disturbing moral dilemmas of our times through the lens of ancient Greek myth. Written by renowned French playwright Jean Anouilh, this play was performed in 1944 in Nazi-controlled Paris and sparked fierce controversy.
Through the story of Antigone, Anouilh raises important questions about the nature of heroism, resistance, and the human condition. With its innovative blend of fantasy, tragic passion, and cosmic leaps in time and space, this play continues to resonate with audiences today.
Commentary and notes by Ted Freeman provide valuable context and insight into the play's themes and characters. This edition of Antigone is a thought-provoking and thoughtfully presented exploration of the human experience.
