Antigone
La Boite Theatre presents a Show of Rage and Defiance! Antigone explodes onto the Roundhouse stage with raw energy and unflinching relevance. A dynamic interpretation of Sophocles’ timeless tragedy, centered on a fearless young woman who refuses to stay silent. When Antigone defies the king’s command to leave her brother unburied, she ignites a brutal clash between personal conviction and authoritarian power. This is no dusty myth. It’s a charged story of protest, conscience, and defiance, set against a backdrop of political turmoil that feels both ancient and alarmingly current. Antigone’s act of resistance sparks questions that burn with urgency today: Who gets to decide what is just? Where does loyalty lie? With the state, or with family, or with ourselves? And what price are we prepared to pay for the truth? Visceral, poetic and uncompromising, this energetic reimagining of Antigone—directed by La Boite’s Artistic Director Courtney Stewart (Macbeth, Congratulations, Get Rich!) and award-winning fight, movement and intimacy director Nigel Poulton (Closer, The Poison of Polygamy)—thrusts Sophocles’ classic into the heart of our fractured world. Starring Maddison Burridge as Antigone, this three-hander production ignites a rallying cry for courage in the face of oppression. Discover more at La Boite.
