Antigone (Anouilh Play)
Jean Anouilh's play ''Antigone'' () is a tragedy inspired by the play of the same name by Sophocles.

The parallels to the French Resistance and the Nazi occupation are clear, however. The original cast included Monelle Valentin (Antigone), Jean Davy (Créon), Suzanne Flon (Ismène), and André Le Gall (Hémon); the staging, decor and costumes were by André Barsacq. British première ''Antigone'' received its British première by the Old Vic Theatre Company at the New Theatre, London, on 10 February 1949.
