Friday 23   May 2003

The weather was not on our side. The days were hot

of intensive rehearsals and the skies opened for three days

of actions. The street theater of the first day did not take place

and they were both played together the next day.

Saturday 24   May 2003

Great moment for the history of our team.

A large street theater in Aristotelous Square.

27 people from 4 different countries.

Greece, USA, Italy, Germany. 3 different languages.

We played and in Tsimiski two khaki MAT squads were lined up.

The first act of Salonica 2003.

Our theatrical response against the culture of domination.

The truth is that part of the interaction with the audience

and his involvement in theatrical action was very important

in the first years of our operation.

All too often, members of the public expressed their fear

for what awaits them. The breaking of boundaries and the activation of all the senses, the ritual and the collective experience.

"Let the theater become the Trojan horse that will conquer the city"

TEXT

The Living Theater, the longest-lived, pacifist, anarchist troupe

and political theater, began in 1947, when Judith Malina

and Julian Beck decided to create a theater

poetry, a political theater that continues its course,

until today.

In this long-term action we distinguish different phases

depending on the orientation of the troupe. Although politics

dimension is evident in all stages, we can identify

variations both in the theatrical forms of their artistic

creation and the spaces that host them, as well as in the media

resistance to their targeting policy.
