Acclaimed director Milo Rau brings 'Antigone' to the Amazon
He has been called "the most controversial director in theater," so it's no surprise Milo Rau's latest project is graphic and visceral: an updated version of "Antigone" transposing the Greek tragedy to the Amazon rainforest and reenacting a bloody massacre.. A short film of the reenacted massacre will play during "Antigone in the Amazon," a theatrical alarm bell warning of the dangers of humankind's destruction of the rainforest, which will premiere on May 13 at Rau's theater.
