Mac Wellman's ANTIGONE (as played by the Three Fates, also the Three Facts, on their way to becoming the Three Graces)

Temescal Arts Center
Oakland, CA


Not at all the story of Antigone, but a kaleidoscopic exploration of its themes interpreted through the delirious scribblings of the Three Fates (yes, those Three Fates) under the interfering eye of a character known as "The Shriek Operator", this mind-bending musing, this devilish dreamland will electrify even your jaded mind. By multiple-Obie-award-winning wordsmith Mac Wellman.

Join the circle as the Three Fates wind the strands of their own immortal lives into ours while they re-generate and distill one of the world's legends. This is not the Greek tragedy you read in school but a pre-historical/hysterical, paradoxical/paroxysmal celebration of storytelling that asks the musical question, "What is more weird than man... or woman?"
