What type of action is absent from the stage in 'Antigone'?
Violence is absent from the stage in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, one of the rules in ancient Greek theater is the non-depiction of onstage violence. Instead, it is acceptable to have a messenger or servant report offstage violence. The rule keeps the audience's attention focused on the onstage action and on the points that the dramatist makes in the play.

Why can the audience not witness Oedipus' blinding in 'Oedipus Rex' or Antigone's death in 'Antigone'?
That violence cannot be portrayed onstage in ancient Greek theater is the reason why the audience cannot witness Oedipus' blinding or Antigone's death in "Oedipus Rex" and "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, the ancient Greeks had a love-hate relationship with the irrational, or uncontrolled passion. For example, death and violence opened up emotional floodgates. The ancient Greeks sought to direct the audience's reactions along certain channels to make sure that the point being made was made without distractions from that purpose. Including emotional response events was a way to get the audience's attention, but setting it offstage focused the attention on whatever universal truth was being emphasized by the dramatist.
