The original plan was to present
on Friday 23 May 2003, a street theater
for human relations in Terpsithea square in Ano Poli,
next to the Occupy Black Cat
on Saturday 24 May 2003, a street theater
for the authoritative constructions in Aristotelous square,
which was not announced on the poster for us to see
how it will work with a random audience and
on Sunday the 25th, a theatrical interaction experiment
with the audience on the very nature of theater
in the basement theater of Facta Non Verba.
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.
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.
And let's go to the third day experiment.
Sunday 25 May 2003
In the basement theater of the group, we looked for other answers.
We asked questions on the medium of the theater itself.
We divided the 200 square meters of the basement into many different areas, creating a hive feel. A different action took place in each hive. Even in the toilet. The audience was coming in
in small groups and followed the path he chose.
At some point, because it was queuing up at the Park Hotel and they started
to mobilize the police forces that attended
and the street theater of the previous day, we opened the doors
but unfortunately there were people who could not enter.
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.

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.
