ANTIGONE, Penn State Centre Stage
"Antigone: A Modern Rebellion"
In a contemporary world fraught with political tension and familial duty, Antigone finds herself at a crossroads between conscience and law. The daughter of a once-mighty family, she is driven to defy the tyrannical decree of King Creon, her uncle, who has outlawed the burial of her brother Polynices, branding him a traitor. Faced with the harsh realities of a corrupt system, Antigone’s act of defiance to honor her brother’s spirit places her in direct opposition to the state and the laws that bind it. What follows is a tragic clash between the values of family, justice, and duty—one that questions the very nature of right and wrong in a world where resistance may cost everything.
The tone is defiant, unapologetically fierce, and deeply emotional. Strong visuals of resistance—graffiti, a raised fist, the push-pull of family loyalty versus societal obligation—capture the essence of Antigone's struggle. This is a story of fighting for justice, against the forces that seek to suppress it.
