Felt too much like a lecture to me. In the end, boy (son of Home Secretary) and girl are blown up (jihadists strap belt around the boy) in a Pakistani cemetery. Girl has kept the body of her twin brother under ice for days, hoping to get a return to UK for a proper burial. Antigone is a tough act to follow.
PBS performance during pandemic. No live audience, filmed in a warehouse. Entire play was good, but the standout was Jessie Buckley as Juliet. Great performance.
