The Other Place

Like Robert Icke's Oedipus and Simon Stone's Medea, writer-director Alexander Zeldin's contemporary British psychodrama is adapted from an ancient Greek tragedy—in this case, Sophocles's prototypical protest play, Antigone. Emma D’Arcy (House of the Dragon) has the central role and Tobias Menzies (The Crown) is the unyielding uncle who refuses to budge on his funeral plans for a relative. The Shed, which frequently serves as a warehouse for luxury-brand English imports, presents a limited run of Zeldin's production, which premiered at London's National Theatre in 2024; Lorna Brown and Ruby Stokes join the cast alongside original stars D'Arcy, Menzies, Jerry Killick and Lee Braithwaite.
