"A performative and explosive mix of genres".
"A strange phantasmagoria of lost desire".
"An impressive performance by Georgios Iatrou as Tiresias singing in drag..."
First collaboration with Greek director Elli Papakonstantinou, who offers a queer / operatic retelling of the Bacchae myth.
This piece finds itself at the intersection of these flows: queer aesthetics / a pop piece with classical operatic overtones / a dance piece with immobility at its heart / a cinematic concert: from Greek tragedy to the metaverse.
