Antigone triumphs in London

The ancient tragedy in a modern direction by Polly Findlay surprises

"Antigone" by Sophocles triumphs in London and wins the British public through the performance of the National Theater of England, where it is presented at this time. The ancient tragedy, in the completely modernized direction of 29-year-old director Polly Findlay (Polly Findlay), he's got, literally, κάνει την καλοκαιρινή έκπληξη αποσπώντας διθυραμβικές κριτικές τόσο για την οπτική της όσο και για ερμηνείες των πρωταγωνιστών. Για «συγκλονιστική αναβίωση» γράφουν οι Financial Times, for "outstanding performances" by the Observer and The Times. Christopher Eccleston (Christopher Eccleston) who plays Creon and Jodie Whittaker (Jodie Whittaker) who interprets Antigone lead a troupe that leaves no one unmoved. Jamie Ballard also stands out (Jamie Ballard) in his role (blind) fortune teller Teiresia, with a half-burnt face.

Placed inside an office of our time, which during the performance turns into a government office, the "Antigone" in Findlay's version alludes, directly, in the modern face of power. Behind the desk, Creon dominates seated while Horus, a number of political and military advisers, discusses sending a press release regarding the end of the Theban War.

With the help of the scenographer (Gilmour Sutra / The Gilmour Sutra) and the translator (the show uses his translation 1980 by N. Taylor / Don Taylor), Findlay, who first grappled with ancient drama, he builds a modern world where the private and the public are entangled in a merciless confrontation. The director is bold but confident in her choices without betraying the legend, places him in the gears of political power in the 21st century. "Perhaps the letter of the law also has its limits;», wonders through "Antigone" and together with the audience that seems to have rediscovered Sophocles.

Simple and understandable, this "Antigone", according to all critics, manages to remain faithful to Sophocles and to confirm that texts like this do not accidentally belong to the great classics and timeless: Because they still work today in the form of emergency.
