Season's Greetings

Well. Things are winding down for Christmas and Jessica and I probably won't be posting anything to boftheblog.com until things start up again in January.

It's back to work and business as usual on Monday 5th January but I'd just like to say a big thank you to all our bloggers and all our readers.

Enjoy the break and see you in the new year!

Alex Roe talks about Antigone at the Royal Exchange

Submitted by Anonymous on Fri, 12/19/2008 - 01:39.

Sophocles’ Antigone is a masterpiece. The play
dares to raise relevant questions it in turn refuses to answer. You
will leave the theatre pondering these large questions yourself. Such
as; can religion and secularism ever live happily side by side? What is
terrorism? When is it right to act against the state? And, have angry
woman always been deemed neurotic? Not bad for a play penned over two
thousand years ago
