    • Synopsis
    • During the last three years, people across Greece have lived on edge, confused, seized with fear. The crisis consumes their spirit and threatens to shatter their perspective.
      The theatre as an art reflects the uneasiness and anxiety of society.
      The people of the theatre, in spite of the crisis, are trying to confront the challenge; they turn their love for their art into a creative commitment.
      They translate adversity into new ways of narrative. They dare to perform their stories in the streets, in open places, in improvised spaces, in small and alternative venues.
