A Celebration of Culture and Storytelling
Prepare for two enchanting evenings of theatrical folk drama in Larnaca, where storytelling, tradition, and artistry merge seamlessly. An original production, We Live in Another Phase, written by Antonis Lazarou and directed by Spyridonas PK Spyrou, is set to captivate audiences with its unique narrative and cultural depth.
An Exciting Weekend of Performances
This intriguing drama will be performed on Friday and Saturday nights at the Larnaca Municipal Theatre G. Lykourgos. Organized by the Vasilitzia Folkloric Organisation in collaboration with the Fourth Wall Theatre Group, the performances promise an emotional journey through Cypriot traditions and contemporary reflections.
The show combines local storytelling with profound themes, offering an experience that blends heritage with artistry. Through this collaboration, the creators aim to transport audiences into the heart of Cyprus, where traditions are celebrated, challenged, and reimagined.
The Storyline: Tradition vs Modernity
Set in a Cypriot village in 2024, the play unfolds as two villagers ignite a debate that divides the entire community. The story pits tradition against modernity in a humorous yet thought-provoking manner.
Stavris, a staunch advocate for preserving traditional values, argues that heritage and roots should remain central to the community’s identity. Meanwhile, Kyriakos, a proponent of progress and change, believes that embracing modernity is essential for the future. The rivalry takes the village by storm, splitting its residents into two factions: Vraka (traditional attire) and Pants (modern attire).
The resolution of this lively debate will unfold on stage, offering a mix of humor, reflection, and emotional depth. Who will prevail—tradition or change? Audiences will find out during this weekend’s performances.
