Theatre
Antigone by director Ha Thuy Hang
An experimental performance of thoughts surrounding Antigone's death where vague assumptions about a place, an indeterminate space, a midway between death and life are set forth throughout. This creative process compares and contrasts our point of view and that of the Greek, and hence yielding points of similarities, differences, consonances, and contradictions. And it is the same process for contemporary aesthetics and traditional Vietnamese aesthetics, one that allows us to truly experiment.
