Outdoor Greek Theatre - Antigone

Outdoor Greek theatre comes to the Gardens. Greek Theatre Now presents Sophocles' Antigone at the Burbidge Amphitheatre.

Directed by Cate Clelland, one of Australia's most experienced Greek theatre directors, and featuring Ella Buckley as Antigone, Ian Russell as Creon and Alastair McKenzie as Haemon, Antigone explores themes of divine law v human law, citizenship v family loyalty, civil disobedience, and the role of the individual and the role of the collective. It is as relevant today as it was 2500 years ago when it premiered in Athens during the birth of democracy.
