VIOLATIONS, this year's series of dramatized analogies from the CPSN, is coming out to the Park for five performances. Shakespeare's most magical work in a theatrical reading specially designed for the Dome of the Cultural Center, addressed to everyone. Hector Lygizos, completing this year's extremely successful series of theatrical analogies of the CPSN, directs - an expanded - ensemble of young actors of the series LOVE GAMES: with simple theatrical means they tell us the complex story of the most summery theatrical dream.
On a midsummer night, two young couples and a bunch of amateur actors take refuge in a forest outside Athens, where they fall prey to demonic but playful elves. The next morning, none of them will know if their nocturnal adventures really happened or were just a dream.
The leading Shakespearean comedy is a work of great poetic spirit which, while not losing its lightness and festive tone, functions at the same time as a multidimensional study of love, dream and fantasy. Outrageous farcical situations, theater within theater, songs, incantations, absurd confessions, quarrels and verbal slurs alternate masterfully composing a dream universe where the natural order of things is overturned to the delight of all.
