About this program

*This ticket to Bard on the Beach includes your ticket as well as transportation to the event* ANTIGONE This bold new adaptation by local playwright Kate Besworth presents Sophocoles' classic Greek tragedy for a contemporary audience. Antigone, the daughter of Oedipus, defies king Creon's decree by burying her rebel brother in the aftermath of a civil war, setting off a chain of events that pits family loyalty against political authority - leading to devastating consequences. Exploring themes of resistance, voice, and generational reckoning, Antigone is raw, timely, and emotionally potent, offering a story as relevant now as it is in ancient Greece.
