Antigone adapter and actor Jane Montgomery Griffiths sheds a little light on the dark history of Sophocles' classic tragedy.
"When you hear the words Greek tragedy, you might think of white masks, or even the ongoing economic crisis – ancient drama and modern depravity in its most enticing form. These first impressions may seem simple, but within them lays a theatrical form that refuses to die."
"Unearthing the power of ritual in a shattered community, Malthouse Theatre presents an intoxicating re-interpretation of Sophocles’ timeless tragedy, Antigone."
"Women critics loved Griffith's Antigone. Men hated it. Translating their different reactions reveals the gendered politics of critique."
