Ship of Fools
Songs of my Neighbours
A two-year European Programme
2014
"I have just started to accept that the world’s volcanoes erupt from time to time to spit back into our face all those things that we have dropped in our wells, believing that we got rid of them forever."
Sofronis Sofroniou
The performance dares to question what we supposedly know, what would be good for us to know, what surpasses us and what we must simply hear and feel. The text is a combination of extracts mainly from the books Ship of Fools (a 1494 social satire) by Sebastian Brant, Ferdydurke by Witold Gombrowicz, Wells by Sofronis Sofroniou and other writings. The performance brings together the results of the artistic research of previous works presented within the framework of the two-year European programme titled Songs of my Neighbours 2013-15..
