Theatre Performance -Thursday 5/9/24 - 20:30

"PS Cyprus"

A different story of Cyprus through the eyes of "others"

The Intra Portas Theatre Group creates a performance of devised theatre to highlight the narrative of Cyprus' history. Three actors and a musician, in the logic of a contemporary folk boule, set up a feast evoking memories of the past.

 We have learned to live with the idealization of yesterday. But how do the "others", the "foreigners" see our own place? Through the letters and testimonies of foreign visitors, a dramaturgy is created that maps the image of Cyprus from the 16th to the 20th century.

Four centuries of Cyprus during which the notes and flavors of Europe come to replace those of the East. A mosaic of cultures that shaped a new identity.
