“Riot Antigone transforms Sophocles’ classic drama into a passionate, ritualistic rock concert, a call to action and a full-bodied theatrical event. A punk band of diverse gender identities and its Chorus Leader sing songs about Antigone's turbulent internal emotional landscape in a woman-centric coming-of-age story. Influenced by the “Riot Grrrl” movement of the '90s, an underground music scene that gave rise to bands like Bikini Kill and Bratmobile, Seonjae Kim’s adaptation of Sophocles tells the tale of a young woman finding the power of her voice. Kim describes the play’s soundtrack of explosive live music as “both homage to that movement and anthems for our politically turbulent times.”

“Travel back to 1900’s New York and meet Esther, a black seamstress with gifted hands and grand ambitions. By day, Esther sews intimate apparel for her clients — from socialites to prostitutes — while at night, she dreams of opening her own beauty parlor, where black and white women receive the same royal treatment. Determined to fashion a future as breathtaking as her garments, Esther pursues her passions while searching for intimacy in her own life.”
