The turkish-greek bilingual archives that inspired the ‘Dünya Maskara’ performance are the starting point for Mairi Pardalaki's creative writing, movement and voice workshops.

Aimed at audiences of all ages, the choreographer invites participants to explore 19th-century bilingual texts, to make them their own and to create new versions, in dialogue or in dispute with them.

Once the re-writing phase is complete, the participants are invited to put their text into voice and movement.

Workshops took place at

Dance Laboratory Rhodes, Rhodes (GR) / 2024

Çıplak Ayaklar Stüdyo, Istanbul (TR) / 2024
