Antígona (2024)

A bold, contemporary adaptation of Sophocles' 'Antigone,' reimagined through five pivotal historical and political contexts: the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, the War of the Pacific, WWII, and the Mexican Narco-state. The play explores the timeless struggle between individual conscience and state power across different eras. This production deconstructs the classic myth of Antigone by placing it in five distinct scenarios of human conflict. By shifting the setting between the Israeli-Palestinian struggle, the War of the Pacific, World War II, and the violence of the Mexican Narco-state, the play highlights the universal nature of resistance and mourning. I performed Antígona, adapting the performance to the specific cultural and historical nuances of each segment. This project required high emotional intensity and a deep understanding of political drama.
