Description
Drawing inspiration from The Cherry Orchard by Anton Chekhov—where the end of an era meets the fear of an unknown future—Stafidokampos (The Currant Fields) relocates the story to a place where memory seems deeply rooted in the soil itself. The Poulopoulos family returns to their ancestral estate after a long absence abroad, only to confront financial dead ends, family secrets and silences, and the looming threat of selling a land that carries their history and identity. The conflict is not merely about the loss of property, but about the painful transition from a disappearing world to one that is forcefully emerging. Using the symbol of Stafidokampos (The Currant Fields) as its point of departure, the performance explores the meaning of roots, home, and homeland today, shedding light on both the economic and emotional dimensions of exploitation, the clash between generations and eras, and the human need to hold on to something that seems destined to vanish forever.
