Description

What happens when a theatrical Iphigenia engages in conversation with a poetic Iphigenia and an artificial one? A dialogue between Artificial Intelligence, timeless texts, and original music.

In the music theatre performance The Dimension of Iphigenia, the audience will be introduced to three different versions of the female character of Iphigenia. Each actress, through her own monologue, will shed light on a different aspect of the same figure, adding a new dimension to the development of the plot.

More specifically, Evangelia Keramari will portray Euripides’ Iphigenia, set against a backdrop of exile within a dystopian world. Ioanna Efthymiadiou will take us on a journey through Yiannis Ritsos’ Iphigenia. Markela Zerdali will perform as the Artificial Intelligence Iphigenia, rejecting the realm of emotions in favour of logic. Composer Angeliki Zoe will offer her own musical dimension to the show, with original music that highlights the inner worlds of the three performers.
