The Athens Epidaurus Festival presents Antigone, a radical reimagining of Sophocles’ tragedy at the Ancient Theater of Epidaurus, created by multi-hyphenate director Alan Lucien Øyen. Enjoy a backstage visit and meet and greet with the cast after the performance. Enliven your senses with a two-night stay at the luxurious Academias Hotel, Autograph Collection, nestled in the heart of Athens’ renowned shopping district and a short stroll from the Acropolis and other legendary destinations.   Alan Lucien Øyen, one of Norway’s most restless and compelling contemporary choreographers, writers, and directors, brings to the stage winter guests, a talented ensemble he founded two decades ago. Joining them are leading collaborators and dancers from Pina Bausch’s Tanztheater Wuppertal.   This reimagination of a classic blends the poetry of movement with the expressive force of text and spoken word. This modern version of Antigone beautifully bridges ancient history and contemporary performance.   Experience Includes:  Two-night stay in Guest Room with king bed at Academias Hotel, Autograph Collection, checking in Friday 7 August and checking out Sunday 9 August Friday 7 August Check in to the hotel at 15:00 Saturday 8 August Buffet breakfast for two (2) Free day to explore the city of Athens Transfer to the theatre Two (2) tickets to attend Antigone at the Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus at 21:00 Backstage visit for two (2) after the show Meet and greet with the cast for two (2) after the show Transfer to the hotel Sunday 9 August Buffet breakfast for two (2) Check out of the hotel at 12:00   Note: This experience does not include flights.
