Mystery 113 A Celebration To Change The World
project
Description
Mystery 113 A Celebration to change the World was a musical walking performance under the artistic direction of Erifili Giannakopoulou, that took place at 15th September of 2023. The starting point was Heroes' Square and and passed through various hotspots of the city.
The event dreamt of changing the world, with 26 musicians, singers, dancers and actors. On 15 September – the date when, according to historical documents, the first act of the Eleusinian Mysteries each year began – a great celebration comes to the city, to cry out the profound need for freedom and rebirth. An eclectic band of artists, strange creatures, prepare a ceremony to change the world. From the Iroon Square, the starting point of their route, until the parking space of the Elefsina Old Oil Mill Factory, where their journey will culminate, they produced an explosion that is personal, emotional and desperate. Collective and frightening. They demanded, they shouted, they kissed, they danced, they fell in love, they danced incessantly, they took a stand. They demanded. They built and destroyed. They parade and asked the people to follow them. To become a part of the celebration. And, along the way, became part of the change. Mystery 113 A Celebration to change the world is an explosion for change, in defence of poetry, love and art. An explosion packed with freedom, bursting with oxygen.
