Why the Athens & Epidaurus Festival might be the opportunity the Europe of festivals is looking for

Theatre in Greece is an act of politics, and therefore everything needs to be taken into consideration. Money is not a tool and words are not concepts, they are actions. And even more so when sometimes it’s all it is left. In that sense, the ministry has now the opportunity to redeem itself and propose a strategy that will enhance the willingness of Greek artists to actively participate on the development of a festival, by acknowledging their social and cultural consequences.






Orfeu salva Théo

É como se o filme se permitisse a dialogar com um tempo social e a ficcionar uma genealogia e uma dramaturgia que, estando sempre fora de campo, nos permite ler o filme com outro contexto. E é como se fossemos ouvir a voz de Hervé Guibert a ler o que pensa Théo por entre os olhares cruzados, as mãos que procuram um corpo e a respiração forte que substitui os diálogos.
