"Bang ... Bang ... Bang ... unveil the drama"
It is raining. The sun is rising. "This morning will not be very great ..." I thought when I opened the window.
Fortunately, I was wrong. At 9.30 am. the sun is shining above the ancient Roman theatre. A European audience is waiting to watch a Greek play in this ancient place. The show is amazing, it seems that we all went back in time. Actresses are wonderful in their red clothes and with their golden masks. For a while, we are all sent back in Ancient Greece.
After this discovery, we went to the modern theatre of Patras It seems to be a Renaissance Theatre with red balconies. In the evening, we assisted to the show performed by a professional troup of actors. Unfortunately, it was in Greek! But, we understood the theme; the actors were great! Of course, what we understood is our interpretation. This is how drama works…
It was a great day, drama led us elsewhere; and this is what we will remember!
PS : Congratulation to the goddesses ;)
Great day.... great week.

ReplyDeleteHeureux qui, comme Ulysse, a fait un beau voyage,
Ou comme cestuy-là qui conquit la toison,
Et puis est retourné, plein d'usage et raison,
Vivre entre ses parents le reste de son âge !
Happy the man who, like Ulysses, has made a fine voyage,
or has won the Golden Fleece,
and then returns, experienced and knowledgeable,
to spend the rest of his life among his family.
The meeting in Patras has been an unforgetable moment from a professional, human and cultural point of view. We discovered the Greek school system as well as the reality of the country and the treasures of this beatiful civilization.
Our students lived a rich experience on all levels. Each day was a real moment of happiness thanks to the gathering of the works produced by all the countries which allowed the students to improve their English and their knowledge concerning all the different countries involved.
We really want to thank our « Comenius Family », as Domna called it, and above all Stamos and his team for the amazing work they all achieved.
