“Look at me, citizens of my country, as I go on my last journey, and look at the sun for the last time, for I will not see it again.” – Antigone
Antigone is a tragedy composed for machines and human voices for 14 actors. This play, written by Sophocles, was premiered in Athens 2400 years ago.
It is a radical classic tragedy about a young radical woman who, in defiance of everything, chooses the voice of her heart and rises up against the orders of those in power. The proposal is a cautionary example of what happens when those in power are blind to their own short-sightedness and good government programme, and how things we take for granted, such as human rights or democratic states, can collapse in a matter of seconds.
“Oh suffering, oh the pain of humanity!” – Creon
The performance is a co-production of the Helsinki City Theatre and the Theatre Academy of the University of the Arts Helsinki.
