(with 3 interventions by Eugenia Vaya)

Theatre of the Society for Macedonian Studies – Foyer

November 21, 2024 - December 15, 2024

In this new play by Yiorgos Veltsos, the exploration of memory, death, and immortality serves as a symbolic funeral for traditional theater and historical conventions. The power struggle between the deceased and the living unfolds as historical figures lose their significance, giving way to a sense of lamentation and political undertones that reflect the feeling of loss. The lingering question: who will emerge victorious?
