Theatre of Ancient Messene, Messenia
Two young men between two worlds, as another Pentheus and Dionysus. Using ancient texts and other documents, they will try to find the roots, to remember, to recall. Technology, progress, growth. What do ancient people call Need? Why are the four seasons of the year getting extinct? What is humanism? Is man the centre of our world? Is there an ecological conscience? Are the great civilizations disappearing?
A performance, with the Hill family at its core, in search of euphoria through co-existence. In this painful journey towards memory, they will be assisted by four musicians, composers, performers, and the actress and director of the performance Sofia Hill. Each one of them will compose their own original music, will set choral parts from ancient tragedies and other texts to music, and will perform pieces of classical and traditional music. The road against oblivion is painful and the catharsis inevitable. The epilogue, however, is a hymn to life.
