Jean Anouilh's version of "Antigone" will be the Harvard Dramatic Club's fall presentation, the club announced last night. The play will go on the boards in Sanders Theater from December 13 thru 17. Robert C. Seaver '50, president of the HDC, has been chosen director.
Assisting Seaver in the HDC production are Robert S. Swain '50, production co-ordinator, Kenneth L. Everett '52, business manager, and Robert M. Cipes '50, publicity director.
Try-outs for the modern adaptation of the Sophocles classic start tomorrow. Anouilh's play was first presented in Paris under the Nazi occupation in 1941, and according to the HDC was intended as anti-totalitarian propaganda.
The play rewrites Sophocle's language into colloquial speech; all its characters are in modern dress--the HDC is costuming its principal characters in evening clothes.
