‘Why do you tell me to be quiet when all I want to know is what I have to do to be happy?’
Two brothers are killed in battle.
One sister grieves.
One King decrees burial for only one brother.
Now the sister is angry.
Now she defies the King.
Now her fate is in his hands…
Inspired by the original work by Sophocles, Jean Anouilh’s Antigone explores the tyranny of corrupt leadership and the power of the people brave enough to fight back.
