OVERALL DIRECTORIAL INTERPRETATION AND DRAMATIC COMMENTARY<br />
Why would the Epilogue be important in your production of the<br />
play?<br />
• How does the Epilogue conclude your overall directorial interpretation of the<br />
play?<br />
• How do you want the audience to feel at the end? What message do you want<br />
them to take away?<br />
• How will you want Creon acted? Do you want the audience to feel sorry for<br />
him or to feel that he deserved everything he got?<br />
• If you want the character of <strong>Antigone</strong> and her actions to be central to the play,<br />
how will you highlight her importance in the Epilogue? Or don’t you need to?<br />
Will you have her body brought on at the end?<br />
• How will you want the Messenger to be acted? Will he/she be played by the<br />
same actor as the Sentry?<br />
• How will the Leader and Chorus react to the tragedy and to Creon? How will<br />
you direct the final speech?<br />
• Where will the dead bodies be placed?<br />
