Antigone Reimagined

In 2024, Court Theatre’s visionary production of Antigone, which was sponsored by the Poetry Foundation, recharged Sophocles’ timeless tale of civil disobedience. Danielle Davis and Cage Sebastian Pierre took on the role of chorus poets, reimagining Sophocles’ classical choral odes as spoken word, body percussion, and melodic ballads. They will present their original mixtape, Songs from the Poets, followed by a talkback with Antigone director Gabrielle Randell-Bent.
