Antigone was a multimedia theatrical event partnered with UN Women’s HeForShe Arts Week to encourage activist outcomes among a university audience. As students performed Antigone onstage, audience members got to move around the theater, watching the show and carrying out political action at different stations. Because of the environmental nature of the production, the play ran three times consecutively, with new audience members entering every hour at 7PM, 8PM, and 9PM on March 8, 2017.
This show was directed by Talley Murphy (BC ‘17) and produced by Sophia Seidenberg (BC ‘19) and Luke Cregan (CC ‘19).
“The play emphasized the use of space and the conflict between confinement and freedom.”
—Kathleen Drake, Columbia Spectator
