WALK _musical narrative walk with the use of headphones in Athens
“Even during the urban bustle, we engage in a silent conversation that enriches the experience”
Scarmi theater group, based in Rethymno Crete presents a unique and original walking act.
The performance is a unique blend of free-form experimentation, theater, music, and storytelling that takes place while walking through both natural and urban landscapes. It draws inspiration from the everyday thoughts of modern city residents and incorporates literary works by Greek authors. It is available in both Greek and English.
Why do we go out for a walk? Do our thoughts contribute to the need for a walk? Is walking a way to relax? A way to ease our thought process, or even stop thinking at all. How does our thoughts are affected by what we see, by everything that surrounds us and by the sensation it creates for us? Can thinking offer a temporary refuge from the noise of the urban landscape?
The listeners and viewers experience a musical narrative journey, wearing headphones and walking through selected city locations just before sunset.
A walking act connecting people who love alternative art, walks and music.
