XOXOXO Rachael] === **MODERN ADAPTATION OF "ANTIGONE" BY NEW NYC THEATER COMPANY** Don't miss this exciting new translation of Jean Anouilh's ANTIGONE, brought to you by QED Productions! A classic study in idealism, youthful passion and female strength, ANTIGONE is as relevant as ever, examining issues of politics, war and power -- while confronting timeless, universal truths about our own humanity and mortality. A thoughtful underdog who stands up for what she believes in, Antigone is a character every modern woman can relate to. Strong-willed, angst-ridden, intense and vulnerable, she finds hidden reserves of strength in facing her uncle Creon, a king who must make painful sacrifices to maintain order and stability. With an outstanding cast of budding and experienced New York actors including Marguerite French in the title role, this is a rare opportunity to see a true modern classic in a brand new translation by director Zander Teller. Running Nov. 9th-19th @ the Hudson Guild Theater (441 W. 26th btwn 9th/10th Aves.)
