St. Louis Actors’ Studio opens its Power and Politics season on Sept. 19 with Antigone by French playwright Jean Anouilh. This adaptation of the Greek tragedy is set in modern times. Originally produced in Nazi-occupied France, Antigone’s tragedy is not based on her inability to change her fate, rather it is founded on her futile struggle against the all-powerful state.
