Antigone

Have you ever heard of such a tale? A child is born that is both a daughter to her father, but also a half-sister to her father, and through her father, her mother’s granddaughter. Are you curious or confused? Meet Antigone, the result of an accidentally incestuous marriage between King Oedipus & his mother Jocasta. Antigone’s role in this tale has it’s own twists of love, suicide and disaster. Antigone by Sophocles is the perfect tale that moulds itself into a parable that demonstrates the powers of love, family, duty, honour and dignity.
