27 Aug Mill of Performing Arts SEVEN
Larissa, 24-27/9/2020
From 24 to 27 September 2020, the Mill of Performing Arts festival will take place in Larissa, for the seventh consecutive year. Co-organized by the City of Larissa department of Culture and Sciences and by SMouTh, this year’s festival focuses entirely on Accessibility and Inclusion and is supported by the Greek Ministry of Culture and Sports.
The subtitle EPTA (7), has a dual meaning, declaring on the one hand the seventh year of its realisation and on the other being an acronym in Greek for “Redefining Performing Arts and Disability”, a phrase which is both the theme and the vision of the festival.
The program includes accessible theater, dance and dance theater performances, short film screenings, inclusive and accessible theater, dance, photography and art accessibility workshops, as well as the multiplier event of Creability Erasmus+ project. On the last day a symposium will be held for an exchange of views and perspectives and the formation of a common goal by artists and researchers in the field. Participating artists and companies (indicative): Onassis Stegi, En Dynamei, ImPArt, SMouTh, Theatre enCorps Collectif, Susanne Schneider, Cornelia Jungo, Creability, Sarena Bockers, Dodzi Dougban, Max Greyson, Liminal Access, Kerasia Michalopoulou, Annita Capousizi, Vassilis Ikonomou and more.
