English supertitles: Every Thursday

Efthymis Filippou – Oscar-nominated for best original screenplay in 2017 – has once again joined forces with Argyro Hioti and her Vasistas group, this time at the National Theatre of Greece. At the centre of Filippou’s new play is a chorus of six women and the personal, metaphysical journey of one man.

A special transcendental space is created on stage, a “management centre” that facilitates communication with the dead. A team of female figures describe the process and handle the impression machine, the only tool for communicating with the next world, which, like a kind of distillery, transforms words into eau de cologne. A man comes in to send a letter to his mother who has been dead for forty years. The women start the machine, lead the man step-by-step through the metaphysical experience, find a way of solving whatever problems exist, doggedly sing versions of songs, and complete their mission by sending the letter.
