Abstract
Letter from Nikos Demetracopoulos to Des Connor, director Union Theatre Melbourne, dated 1950. The letter is in regards to his offer to perform Antigone. In 1951 Nikos Demetrakopoulos directed a production of Sophocles' 'Antigone' in modern Greek at the Union Theatre at Melbourne University. A theatrical milestone, it was probably the first production of Greek tragedy in Greek in Victoria.
