Who is the antagonist for August Wilsons play Fences?
Yes, if Cory is the antagonist, it would mean he is indeed the “bad guy”. The antagonist is always the villain, even if he’s as subtle as to be his best friend. He’s the opposite main character. For an example, if you were to watch the simpsons, Homer is a protagonist even though he’s the idiot. The antagonist could be anyone from sideshow bob to marge’s sisters even though they aren’t that bad. The antagonist is the conflict provider. Although I haven’t read ‘Fences’, the information in your question leads me to believe the antagonist is who you think it is, Troy.
