ON CAMPUS The Darrow Theater Workshop presents... The Burial at Thebes For its fall production November 11–12, the Darrow Theater Workshop took on two unique challenges: staging a modern adaptation of a classic Greek tragedy, and performing in the unusual setting of the Tannery rather than the Darrow Theater. The play— The Burial at Thebes: A Version of Sophocles’s Antigone by Seamus Heaney— is based on the fifth century B.C.E. tragedy Antigone, by Sophocles, which tells the story of the daughter of Oedipus, King of Thebes. Addressing themes of morality, individual freedoms, and the imposition of restrictions by the state, the play featured several variations on the original, said Jennifer Pytleski, Director of Performing Arts. Heaney’s adaptation, she said, blends both current events with classic elements of Greek tragedy. Clockwise from top left: Maddie Nicholson ’18, as Creon, wrestles with a dilemma; Mickey Mastrianni ’18, as Antigone, makes her argument before the king; Max Sidell ’18 and Constanza Carty ’19 provide comments and context; Max Paladino ’19, as Tiresias, and Tench Cholnoky ’20, as his boy, provide their testimony; and Rachel Yang ’18 delivers an important message to the court as Ewen McManus ’18, as Hades, observes in the background.
