Posted over 3 years ago

In case you have not yet had the opportunity to attend The Nurse Antigone, read on and register at the link below.

A groundbreaking project by and for nurses, The Nurse Antigone presents dramatic readings of Sophocles’ Antigone on Zoom—featuring professional actors and a chorus of frontline nurses—to help frame powerful, guided discussions about the unique challenges faced by nurses before, during, and after the COVID-19 pandemic.

Antigone, an ancient play about a young woman who puts everything on the line to do what she believes is right, dramatizes the heavy cost of silencing and marginalizing caregivers, especially during times of crisis. By performing Sophocles’ play for diverse audiences, including nurses as well as concerned citizens, The Nurse Antigone aims to generate compassion, awareness, connection, and much-needed healing, while celebrating and advocating for nurses at this critical juncture in the history of their profession.

The Nurse Antigone: will be brought to you by Theater of War Productions and NYC Health + Hospitals on May 25 from 5pm to 7pm EDT. The registration link is: nurseantigonehh.eventbrite.com.
