Vagabond Presents Antigone

Ever feel like those in power have let it go to their heads? It is not a new thing. Sophocles’ Antigone dealt with the abuse of power more than a thousand years ago. Vagabond Productions presents Antigone, March 18-21, 2026, in the Theatre in the Performing Arts Centre at UPEI. Asked about the choice, director Greg Doran said: “The ideas in the play are, unfortunately, still relevant, so it seemed a good time to revisit this classic.” Doran went on to warn: “We are presenting this play from a particular perspective, so it might not be for people with a narrow view of the world order.”

The doors open at 7 pm, for a 7:30 pm curtain. Admission is “pay-what-you-can.” The play’s language is suitable for all audiences, but the play does deal with the death of several characters: all off-stage in the Greek tradition.
