Review: Antigone (Cold Basement Dramatics) by Scotty Zacher

What this 5,000th (or so) adaptation of Antigone, gains in clarity and immediacy are countered by losses in grandeur and mystery. The adaptation tries to explain too much, and in a flat prose depressingly different from Sophocles' soaring speeches. But for those who prefer their myths matter-of-fact and up-to-date, nothing will be lost in the translation.
