Synopsis
In this last play, Antigone grows into a willful fighter, fierce, determined and serene... making no bid for sympathy. In the final tragedy of her family, she defies the threat of death should she provide decent burial for her just killed brother. She is walled in a tomb where she hangs herself...and the tragedy is complete. Notes Limited Streaming Rights Available Read an Excerpt Related Titles Antigone (Mann) Antigone (Roberts)
