A girl rebels against the kingdom, and the kingdom pushes back.

Antigone is reeling after the death of her brother, and she wants to give him the send-off he deserves. The only thing standing in her way is Creon, the new king who is trying to assert authority. She can choose to step down, or she can choose to resist. And if she goes up against the king, she stands to lose more than just her pride…

An ancient story that ripples through time to the present day, Antigone takes us on a riveting and unravelling journey from control to chaos where the personal and political collide.

Reimagined by the cast of Perth Youth Theatre, Antigone fuses Paul Woodruff’s translation of Sophocles’ text with live sound and movement for a production of a classic that sizzles with youthful energy and emotion.
