Antigone
Theatre in the evening
Puppet theatre with live music based on the tragedy by Sophocles, performed by Bühne Cipolla Bremen.
A newly crowned king issues an order. And his niece Antigone ignores it.
Antigone legitimises her actions through ethical values and moral imperatives.
With his tragedy, written in 442 BC, the Greek poet Sophocles created a text that brings together all the essential conflicts of human existence.
In times of increasing hostility towards democracy and the worldwide rise of populist tendencies, this eloquent play, written almost 2500 years ago, has lost none of its gripping, moving drama to this day.
