Antigone's brother has died in a bloody civil war. The king - her uncle - has forbidden anyone to bury the body. Antigone is going to bury the body anyway. Twenty-five centuries after Antigone, seven performers gather to re-tell the tale of what is buried and what comes of it. Ancient Greece crashes into the contemporary, as Sophocles' classic tragedy shines a scorching light onto our current world. Nina Segal's modern adaptation brings Antigone blazing into the present day. Her previous work includes Cow|Deer (Royal Court), We Are The Lucky Ones (Dutch National Opera) and Shooting Hedda Gabler (Rose Theatre).
