theatre performance
"Round is the river"
Centre of Contemporary Art

Introduction
 On Saturday, April 27th, at the yard of the Centre of Contemporary Art
of the Museum of Modern Greek Art in Rhodes, the amateur theatre group "desire"
* presented the performance "Round is the river". The 20-minute show
-within the frame of the art project MoTeR_1- was a combination of painting and theatre acting and
was based on the homonymous theatre poem.
Two actors, Jacko Kamchis and Stergios Pardalos, acted inside and outside of a peculiar
stage, a transparent conservatory. With large quantities of acrylics, I painted all sides
of the set through the performance. Gradually the transparency was lost, allowing only the
shadows to pass through.
Below you may find material, rich in photographs and
videos as well as the text.
I sincerely thank all associates that have worked
for the performance.

 * The amateur theatre group "Desire"
was formed aiming at the presentation of the trilogy of theatre poems "The
end of the world" (texts and direction by Angelos Spartalis). The first part
of the trilogy, titled "shoe's cemetery" (photo), was presented in Rhodes, in August 2000 (starring: D.
Sotrilli, Y. Kotsoronis, Y. Chrisostomou, stage sets: Y. Kouroupas). "Round
is the river" is the second part of the trilogy.
