Description

The sparrow with the red vest by Galateia Grigoriadou-Soureli is brought to the stage as a contemporary performance combining theatre, dance and original music, addressed to children, teenagers and adults. Based on a landmark work of Greek children’s literature, the production approaches the sparrow as an allegory of the Other: a vulnerable, different being who becomes the target of fear and exclusion, but also a call for care. Narration, movement and sound create a poetic stage environment in which Contact Improvisation, silence and live music reveal the fragile balance between violence and solidarity. Conceived in direct dialogue with the archaeological site, this 4PLAY production asks a simple yet urgent question: what does it mean to remain human when faced with the defenseless.
