Description

The performance Friend with the Mountain converses with the historical identity of zeibekiko, a warlike, Dionysian, and improvisatory male solo dance. From the solitary figure of the fighting man to the ecstatic rhythm of personal struggle, zeibekiko has always represented a field of tension and honour. The piece does not negate this legacy; it retranslates it. Memory and identity are embodied in the figure of a dancing woman.

Choreographer Eva Georgitsopoulou, along with Elina Rizou’s onstage music supervision, creates a ritualistic space where solo dancing returns not to fight but to remember and transform through memory into a collective experience. Friend with the Mountain is a personal tribute, a quiet revolution, and an attempt to establish roots through the body.
