- More about Antigone
Antigone defies her uncle and buries her brother, triggering a cycle of destruction. Ivo van Hove's Roman Tragedies captivated London audiences, and he now directs a classic Greek masterpiece.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 56 pages
Publication date: 05 May 2022
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing PLC
When her deceased brother is declared a traitor and his body left unburied beyond the city walls, Antigone steadfastly refuses to accept this most severe of punishments. Defying her uncle, who governs, she dares to utter the defiant statement, "No." Proceeding with a funeral alone, she prioritizes her personal allegiance over politics, a resolute act that sets in motion a destructive chain of events. Renowned for the revelatory nature of his work, Ivo van Hove first captivated London audiences with his groundbreaking Roman Tragedies, which were presented at the Barbican in 2009. Drawing upon his exceptional ability to break open texts that have been calcified by tradition, the director now turns his attention to a classic Greek masterpiece.
