Acclaimed creator and performer Euripides Laskaridis, at the intersection of dance, theatre, and visual arts, is preparing a work for the Little Theatre of Ancient Epidaurus, exploring aspects of the adventure and artistry involved in theatre, and aspects of the contemporary Greek identity overall. A glance at the erratic stories we tell about ourselves and antiquity inside an amphitheatre devoted to Dionysus. At the same time, an excavation in Euripides Laskaridis’ personal mythology which evokes memories, images, and emotions from the culture of summer theatre tours. A new tragicomedy unfolds under the starry night of Epidaurus.

TOURNÉ is commissioned by the Athens Epidaurus Festival 2021 & 2022 and co-produced with OSMOSIS. Supported by NEON and the Ministry of Culture and Sports.
