Semiha Berksoy Opera Foundation stages Greek writer Yannis Ritsos’ Ismene with Prof. Zeliha Berksoy’s direction and Prof. Cevat Çapan’s outstanding translation. The play is a monologue, a poem of dramatic style that reinterprets Sophocles’ Antigone from the point of view of Ismene and masterfully questions the themes of power, love, sexuality, religion, death and freedom.
