Most people would not be interested in attending a Greek play, thus the creators of Antigone in Ferguson wanted to attract those who would not normally attend such a production. As a result, they needed to figure out how to reach a larger audience by connecting social issues that people confront on a daily basis and the reason that they performed this greek play and show it to the audience was to simply demonstrate the racialized violence towards the African American community in the united states. They did this as a technique of raising public awareness about the role of police in today’s society.
