Description
The work Autumn Youth is an original theatre performance for teenagers, inspired by the youthful memories of people who grew up in Trikala and still live there today as members of the elderly community. It is the result of a broader artistic venture that combines oral storytelling, theatrical creation, and intergenerational encounters.
The group visited homes, coffee shops, and Open Care Centres for the Elderly in Trikala, conversing and recording stories, myths, and experiences of older residents about their teenage years (how they had fun, which places they frequented, which songs they loved, how they fell in love, etc).
Following the completion of the performances on 18 July 2025, an intergenerational workshop will take place where teenagers and elderly individuals will exchange stories, questions, and experiences, exploring concerns about the present and the past while revealing aspects of the local cultural heritage. Through this artistic activity, the past of Trikala returns to the present, aiming to create a shared space for connection, understanding, and creativity among different generations.
