Fantastic for teaching and exploring Antigone at a higher level

I am using this video series as part of an advanced high school theater class (IB Theatre). Not only does it provide a background in Greek theater, it helps students begin to think about the different contextual elements involved in the artistic direction of a play from character dynamics, thematic choices, contextual influence, and even modern adaptation. My students love it and the interviews are outstanding.
