Antigone

Antigone
Takes pupils on a contemporary journey into age-old themes such as justice, power and conscience
Through the myth of Antigone, pupils get to know a young woman who dares to stand up for what she believes is right, even when that goes against what those around her expect. By means of interactive exercises and conversations, pupils discover how ancient stories and myths still resonate in the world of today. The workshop shows that classical stories do not only tell us something about the past, but can also be a powerful starting point for conversations about choices, responsibility and identity in the here and now.
