Yvette Bozsik Company: Antigone, Festival Theatre Budapest, 27 December
- 22 Dec 2015 8:04 AM
Following on from The Magic Flute and Orpheus and Eurydice, the Yvette Bozsik Company once again adapts a large-scale opera for the dance stage: on this occasion, it presents Carl Orff's 1949 musical setting of Sophocles' tragedy Antigone. In the drama that serves as the basis for the work, Antigone's brothers die by each other's hand.
The king proclaims one brother a traitor, but Antigone plans to give him a proper burial in defiance of the king's orders. In this Ancient Greek drama, morality clashes with power as a sibling's affection and love attempt to overcome the law, but the story ends only in tragedy.
