Description

When Creon refuses to bury the body of Antigone''s unruly brother, Antigone''s anger quickly turns to defiance. Creon condemns her to a torturous death: she''s to be buried alive.Acclaimed playwright Roy Williams takes Sophocles'' play and, by placing it into a contemporary setting, brings this classic tale vividly to life.A timeless story about loyalty and truth, about how we make meaning out of life and death, and what in the end really does matter.Roy Williams''s adaptation of Antigone received its world premiere at Derby Theatre, in a co-production between Pilot Theatre, Derby Theatre and Theatre Royal, Stratford East, before going on a national tour. This new, edited edition is published for the first time in Methuen Drama''s Plays for Young People series, aimed at 16-18 year olds.
