Now & Then Creative Company closes their 2nd season with a classic Greek tragedy Antigone by Sophocles. Presented as a Victorian ghost story with a stellar, all-female cast, this production recounts the cautionary tale while making the hair stand up on audience's necks.The final, harrowing play in the Oedipus Cycle written in 441 B.C., Antigone presents the aftermath of a bloody civil war. Oedipus is dead. The throne is empty. His sons, Eteocles and Polyneices have killed each other in battle and a new king Creon ascends the thrown. The king punishes Polyneices for his disloyalty to the state by not burying him. When Antigone learns of this disrespect given to her brother, she vows to go against the king her uncle by burying Polyceices with honor. How far will she go to do what she believes is right? At what cost?
