Description

Vivian Stergiou is inspired by Euripides' Iphigenia in Aulis, focusing on the moment just before the heroine's sacrifice. "It doesn't matter if I die, but first I will be heard," she says, spitting out the words - her only weapon. And as long as she monologues, she exists here and now. As soon as she stops, she dies from a thousand directions, in all places. Everywhere and always, the oracle triumphs. Her sacrifice is comedic, hardly tragic. She digs her own grave and steps inside. A sacrifice for nothing. Meat for consumption.   Vangelis Chatzigiannidis writes, inspired by Euripides' Hecuba, a fun and delightful text that demystifies the ultimate symbol of mourning and despair, through the eyes of a person who experienced it closely and perceived things that were never captured in the works of the great poets. The common human perspective, the small human measure, against the great myth. The journey of the tragic Hecuba through a skewed, unexpected gaze.
