    “TALKING LANDS” PROJECT: SYNTHESIS

    Two lands, Apulia and Greece, divided by the Great Sea but tied together with the invisible thread of the history that brings forgotten similarities back for people of today: a prayer, a lullaby, the architecture of a church, the taste of bread with olive oil.
    In this way, through this rediscovery, two lands divided by different languages find common roots. Far lands that open an intercultural dialogue in order to achieve a bigger goal: the openness to the other, the openness to the different, without the fear of losing our identity, because in these roots we find the same seeds that our fathers disseminated in the name of peace and brotherhood.
    Following the thread of the history, within Talking lands project- Talks between the lands of Apulia and Greece, the communities involved will be able to tell, thanks to the narration of life tales, moments impressed only in the memory that come out through the storytelling.
    Activities will be managed by authors and storytellers with strengthened experience. It offers an opportunity for small and medium-sized theatre companies that have to tackle daily difficulties in finding available markets, in order to face different audiences, national and international, to create innovative and appreciable performances.


    Activities:
    • workshops led by theatrical companies related to themes about legends, local traditions and cultural links between Greek and Italian territories;
    • the co-production of narrative events thanks to the collaboration with authors, artists, cultural associations, local actors (Greek and Italian) about a common theme related to Italian and Greek traditions, as the outcome of literary researches aimed to identify the main narrative features of the territories, an exchange of experience and a mutual understanding aimed to the professional and artistic growth;
    • theatrical season in each project partner-town, where the narrative events will be performed;
    • a DVD (in three languages: Italian-Greek- English) aimed to be broadcast on local TV stations, in which shows, backstage, researches and workshops will be filmed;
    • online journal related to the narrative themes developed by literary researches on Greek and Italian legends and traditions;
    • literary meetings that will take place in Italy and Greece with authors, as moments of reflection with cultural stakeholders, directors, musicians, film-makers, storytellers.
