Sometimes a person needs to create an act that destroys the world because the world is broken.

The virus has ravaged Thebes. Millions are dead and the economy has tanked. Vaccinations have been administered and the Festival of Liberty is imminent. Things are finally about to change. The countdown is on but leader Creon and his quarantined niece, the self-identifying X'ntigone, have unfinished business before the celebrations can commence. What happens when old-world order meets a radical new world vision?

In this thrilling meditation on Sophocles' timeless Greek tragedy, political expediency meets the voice of a generation who want to tear down the power structures that have ill-served a crumbling state.

Darren Murphy's X'ntigone is a fresh and vital discourse for our times, when even truth has been sacrificed at the altar of political gain and avarice.

Darren Murphy was shortlisted for the Verity Bargate Award in 2002 for his play The Flats at the Soho Theatre, where he was also joint winner of The Westminster Prize with A Road in Winter, also in 2002. Tabloid Caligula, was a prizewinner in the London Writers' competition in 2000, and was revived for the Arcola in May 2004, and again at 59East59, New York for a season of new British writing off-Broadway, in 2005. His latest play Irish Blood, English Heart was produced at the Union Theatre Southwark in 2011.
