Pre-booking for 20th of July

A musical documentary – a “farewell ceremony” of people leaving their homelands to unknown destinations.

Kythera is a special place, whose modern history has been defined by migration and refugee flights. The performance is a compilation of stories, songs, photographs and other material from the island’s local population. It was on this material that the musical documentary – a “farewell ceremony” was based.

Kythera – Australia is a dirge-like original musical work centred around the human voice that offers the redemptive recollection of the relationship of people with their land, and the separation from it. A belated ceremony of relief and memory. A big timeworn Goodbye.
