Through the art of contemporary dance and music, this artistic creation is a combination of speech, movement and music, and seeks to express the psyche of the heroes of the tragedy while exploring the moral and ethical dilemmas that emerge from the tragedy. It seeks to explore the symbiosis of human nature and power, as well as the delicate balance of individuality and collective responsibility in contemporary society.

The contemporary dance choreographies, with a combined technical and expressive approach, interpret the conflicts that emerge from ancient tragedy and the conflicts that present themselves in a new dimension in modern times.

The musical composition is an original creation, inspired by the emotions that emerge through the intense conflicts in this play by Sophocles and is an essential part of the performance. It interweaves electronic and acoustic soundscapes and has been enriched with words and song lyrics based on the ancient text in a free rendering in modern Greek. At certain points, the original ancient text is narrated and set to music.

Narration in Greek and English.
