ANTIGONE

I went to see Antigone, by Sophocles, last night with my wife and daughter.

My knowledge of Greek tragedy is pretty much zilch. All I knew was that life in the plays is very difficult, and that they all die in the end. This is exactly what happens in Antigone. But it was well-performed, and not very long (less than two hours, including an interval), so I enjoyed it.
