Antigone

Celebrated stage and screen actress Juliette Binoche plays Antigone in a contemporary version of Sophokles’s tragedy, translated afresh by T.S. Eliot Prize-winning poet Anne Carson.

When her dead brother is decreed a traitor, his body left unburied beyond the city walls, Antigone refuses to accept this severe punishment. Defying her uncle who governs, she dares to say ‘No!’

Renowned for the revelatory nature of his work, Ivo van Hove is one of the world’s most sought after theatre directors.
