ANTIGONE Sophocles Adaptation by Jane Hille
This is Antigone for the modern era. She is another woman of courage and part
of a tragic family narrative who holds to her word and the promise she
made her brother Polynices. Antigone is sacrificed for this, however, in
the final moments of her life she reclaims what was taken from her. Her
actions are watched by her dead mother and brothers. They cannot undo the
generational sin being passed from fathers to their children.
