he Chorus introduces the main characters of the play: Antigone, the titular tragic heroine and daughter of Oedipus; Ismene, Antigone's beautiful and feminine sister; Haemon, Antigone's fiance and the Prince of Thebes; and Creon, Antigone's uncle and the world-weary King of Thebes, married to Eurydice. The Chorus also narrates the background lead up to the play: Antigone's brothers Eteocles and Polynices fought for the rule of Thebes and killed each other. Creon then became king and declared Polynices a traitor, meaning he should get no burial.

The action picks up with the Nurse discovering Antigone sneaking back to her room early in the morning, supposedly from a romantic tryst. Ismene arrives and tries to talk Antigone out of burying Polynices against Creon's edict. She is afraid to go against the law.

Haemon visits and Antigone admits to dressing up in Ismene's feminine accessories out of insecurity of Haemon's love for her. She then says that she loves Haemon but she will not be able to marry him. Hurt, Haemon leaves. Ismene returns to remind Antigone that Polynices was not kind or loving. She says that this is Creon's business. Antigone confesses to already burying him.
