Odysseus
Homer's Odyssey - the epic of return and eternal wandering - is approached here as a timeless journey that reflects the human search for meaning, memory, and home. Odysseus is presented not only as the king of Ithaca, but as a universal figure, embodying every person who navigates loss, transformation, and the desire to return to their inner self.
Director Giannis Poutachidis treats the Odyssey as a living theatrical body, combining multiple theatrical languages: music, movement, and spoken word. Drawing on his experience in multicultural and multilingual contexts, the performance transforms theatre into a shared space of encounter. The aim is not to retell the myth, but to rediscover the essence of theatre: play, imagination, collective presence, and the joy of being together.
