The Lyric Theatre (Los Angeles, CA)
In the aftermath of the United States' second civil war in year 2060, two brothers lay dead.

Her actions will set off a chain of devastating events leading to death and an ultimate rebirth.

Currently at The Lyric Theatre:
Colonial and sexual oppression are the key themes in Cloud Nine, all told through a hilarious script with a viciously sharp bite. The absurdist story follows an English family from their life in colonial Africa during the Victorian era, to their life in late twentieth century London, except that for the characters, the play spans only twenty-five years.

The Lyric is a brand new 99-seat theatre that opened in March 2007. A block away from Pink's Hot Dogs stand and just steps from Melrose Avenue, the Lyric provides a perfect opportunity for a night on the town with a dose of artistic inspiration.

The year is 2060. In the aftermath of the United States’ second civil war, two brothers lay dead. The conservative theocracy of Creon decrees that one will be buried with honors, and one will be unburied, dishonored and abandoned. Their sister, Antigone, is torn between the laws of her uncle’s government and her love of family and own moral imperative. Her actions will set off a chain of devastating events leading to death and an ultimate rebirth. But is this God’s answer or man’s?
Antigone was originally written by Sophocles, as one of his three Theban plays, in 442 BC.
