The third and final instalment of the Ancient Greek playwright's Theban plays, Antigone follows the titular, brave daughter of Oedipus, who attempts to bury her brother Polynices against King Creon's wishes, and is sentenced to be buried alive as punishment.
Details of Ellams' production, including casting and the era he'll set his adaptation in, are yet to be announced.
Max Webster (Life of Pi, Henry V) is directing the production, which runs from Saturday 3 - Saturday 24 September. Antigone follows on from two fluffy musicals: Zinnie Harris's twice-delayed musical adaptation of Dodi Smith's 101 Dalmatians and Lucy Moss's revival of Legally Blonde the Musical, starring Courtney Bowman.
