DATE AND VENUE

Atatürk Cultural Centre Grand Hall

ATTIS THEATRE

• Written by: Aeschylus
• Director: Theodoros Terzopoulos

Following “Bacchae” and “Quartet”, Attis is once more our guest with “Prometheus in Bound” which will make its world debut in Istanbul. The play exposes the conflict between the new and old values of life: in the mythological scale man needs to be united with Nature, God and the Polis, while in the new order God is the Superior Being and all creatures must obey Him. Prometheus, as a symbol of freedom, is the one that brings to light the power of LAW, which frightens man and God. He seks the secret key of balance between logic and instinct, between the order and the caos, but he will never find it, even when he gets liberated by Hercules.
