CRT: Antigone

Connecticut Repertory Theatre presents:

Antigone

Antigone

Written by Sophocles

Directed by Gary English

April 2-11, 2021

Virtual Production

This play offers an intimate portrait of a young woman and her refusal to sacrifice her principles when ordered to meet questionable but legal demands of a state in crisis.

The conflict between two points of view regarding our rights and responsibilities as citizens takes on a contemporary look, as we navigate a world where issues of gender, race, violence and trauma thread through a political discussion regarding natural law, civil disobedience, and the importance and risks of public dissent.
