This is the final part of director’s Elmārs Seņkovs trilogy. After “Shakespeare” and “Grimm” comes “The Greeks”. The first two parts were about bloody fights, war and people who stand against each other.
For the last part of the trilogy the creative team has chosen the Greek myths to show what happens with us and around us. The performance takes you to the place where Gods create people who stand against them and become heroes.
As Elmārs says himself: “This is sad theatre poem about the world.”
This performance is based on the movement and sound that actors create during the whole show. The text is important, but becomes secondary.
