ISMENE: piecing together a woman

Why did Sophocles get rid of Ismene halfway through Antigone? What happened to the last surviving heir of Oedipus' cursed fmaily?

An exploration of a character undefined by literature, this workshop seeks to answer these questions and more. Join us as we explore feminine storytelling and attempt to piece together a woman who grieves not only the death of her sister but her entire family, and must face an internal battle against regret.
