Event
Performance «Antígona González»
On the stage of Madrid’s Centro Cultural Conde Duque, Sophocles’ tragedy comes to life in the contemporary world of the disappeared, where personal loss is transformed into a struggle for memory and justice.
About this event
In this space, a mythical story with contemporary resonance is revived: the play Antígona González transposes Sophocles’ tragedy to the painful reality of Mexico, where disappearances have become an everyday reality. The protagonist searches for her younger brother, who vanished without a trace, and confronts threats, fears and social prejudice, turning her personal loss into a symbol of the struggle for memory and justice. Marina de Tavira’s staging, directed by Sandra Félix, transforms the ancient myth into a contemporary story about pain, resistance and the unceasing search, in which every image reflects the lives of thousands of women who never stop looking for their loved ones.
