When: February 17-March 6, 2016
Five award-winning female playwrights bring five very different explorations of Sophocles’ tragedy to life. “Antigone Project; a Play in 5 Parts” reconsiders this classic story from a variety of rich and radical perspectives of race, class and gender. With such settings as World War I, a modern African Village and the underworld of Hades, we see a sister’s love and devotion through many lenses in a work that The New York Times lauded as “engaging, seductive and wildly divergent.”
