The theme of betrayal begins with the play's beginning. For Theban King Creon betrays the faith of his people, his gods, and his family. For example, he disrespects the trust of his people in him as the defender of god-given traditions and of communal well-being. For he enacts a law that allows the carrying out of proper burial procedures only for those who were loyal to Thebes in the recent battle against the enemy Argive. In so doing, he scoffs at and insults the gods, who establish such traditions for the smooth passage from life into death. Likewise does he abuse and neglect the responsibility of him as sovereign to his people and as spouse, father, and uncle respectively to wife Queen Eurydice, to son Haemon, and to the two dead and the two living children of his deceased sister, Queen Jocasta.

One of the main topics in Antigone were 'Disillusionment' and 'Different shades of happiness".
Yes, Antigone and Creon are the most important characters in "Antigone" by Sophocles (495 B.C.E. - 405 B.C.E.).Specifically, Theban Princess Antigone and King Creon determine the course of events in the play by their individual acts and their combined interaction. All other action is affected by and reactive to the struggle between the niece and her uncle. That makes them the most important characters and their struggle the most important theme in the play.
