Description:
A bold reimagining of Sophocles' Antigone for the digital age. Set in a modern hospital, this thought-provoking adaptation explores how social media, political influence and public opinion shape our understanding of right and wrong. When a young doctor defies authority to help an immigrant patient, she sparks a conflict that challenges loyalty, morality and the abuse of power. As opinions spread online and tensions escalate, lives are changed forever. Blending ancient tragedy with contemporary issues, this powerful production asks an urgent question: when conscience and authority collide, who gets to decide what is right?
