For the fourth consecutive year, ATLAS E.P. provides accessibility services for the Athens Epidaurus Festival. This year, the polyphonic composition “Point of Refreshment” of Argyro Chioti is being presented with universal access services:
- Audio description for equal access to the visual channel of communication
- Simultaneous interpreting in Greek Sign Language
- Surtitling in Greek and English for equal linguistic and sensory access
A few words about the performance:
Can we reverse our view of the world for a moment? See beyond the world of matter? A special place on the border between myth and reality, inhabited by fantasies and ghosts, is invited to be discovered by the polyphonic composition created for the Festival by Argyro Chioti, with a mixed group of performers, consisting of actors, dancers, and singers.
Metaphysical stories and legends inspire a narrative that claims a return to myth. On stage, an existential place of ‘refreshment’ is generated. A place where souls gather to quench their thirst, amidst visions and spirits of nature, questioning the relationship between the individual and the collective.
More information about the performance and its contributors, as well as for ticket bookings, can be found on the website of Athens Epidaurus Festival: https://aefestival.gr/festival_events/point-of-refreshment/?lang=en
