Late Night (Greece) - Eulogy for a lost Europe

Work:: Late Night (Greece) (S621527118)

What does it feel like to live through the end of an era? Here, among the debris of a dilapidated ballroom, six performers endlessly dance the waltz, stopping only to share fragmented recollections of a lost love. There's music, singing, a drink, some tricks to pass the time, and always the same absurd sense of waiting.

Eulogy for a lost Europe

Devised by Blitz Theatre Group - a contemporary Greek collective who write, direct and act collaboratively, playing with traditional theatre structures - Late Night has the otherworldly feel of a David Lynch film. Emotive and poetic, with a quiet stillness and an unsettling quality of confinement, the piece unfolds to a nostalgic soundtrack. It speaks of the past and the future, of hope and despair, of a Europe in ruins. Performed in Greek with English surtitles. Part of the London International Festival of Theatre (LIMF)
