Dell, Outdoor Areas
The 2025 Randolph College Greek Play is Sophocles’ Antigone, which pits the title character against Creon, the current ruler of Thebes. Antigone’s brother Polynices has died while attacking Thebes to regain the throne from his brother Eteocles, who also dies in the conflict. Creon decrees that Eteocles may be given a proper burial, but that Polynices must be left for the birds and dogs, since he traitorously raised an army against his hometown. Antigone defies the order and buries her brother, and Creon condemns her to death. Their actions set in motion many unintended consequences. The play dramatizes the conflicts we still have between public and private, male and female, law and religion, state and family.
Our production of Antigone in 2000 revived the Greek Play tradition, and we’ll be celebrating a quarter century of the renewed series in 2025! More information will be at randolphcollege.edu/cad/25th.. Directed by Amy R. Cohen,
