S2 Episode One - Will Aitken’s Antigone Undone: When Art Skewers Us Through
Writer Will Aitken, poet and translator, Anne Carson, and AGO’s Director of Public Programming, Devyani Saltzman, talk about Aitken’s haunting 2018 genre-busting memoir, Antigone Undone, which chronicles the effects that Sophocles’ tragic and doomed character have on Aitken when he is deeply immersed in her story. Why do so many continue to find her a potent symbol of the plight of the strong woman in a misogynist society? What toll does stepping out onto the stage night after night, interpreting Antigone and her tragic fate, have on actress Juliette Binoche (who starred in a touring production of the play, translated by Carson and directed by Dutch theatre director Ivo van Hove)? And just what does collaboration mean when artists have strong feelings about how a work should be presented to modern audiences or readers today?
