Play: Notes
Ever wondered what’s the big deal with a particular play or playwright?
Was Romeo really worth it? What exactly was Oedipus’ complex? Who was Antigone antagonising? And why was a play about vaginas revolutionary for its time?
This is where Play: Notes comes in.
Join Dramaturgs Emily Duncan and Allison Horsley as they give you the need-to-know notes on plays that have influenced how we watch, read, and think about theatre.
Warning: Contains mature themes, language, and spoilers.
Play:Notes is produced by Prospect Park NZ and engineered by Otago Access Radio. Season Two original theme music is by Matthew Morgan.

Play: Notes
Antigone
Was Antigone the original kick-arse woman character? She’s definitely not going down without a fight. In this episode we also take a look around some theatre architecture, the social context in which Greek tragedies were performed, and what it was like to watch a show in 442 BCE.
Thanks for listening! Please consider leaving us a rating and a review.
