Moonlight Tango
2021-08-05 19:00 - 2021-08-08 23:59 UTC
Tango is not just a musical form or a type of dance. It is a ‘culture’ with a very interesting history and a diverse sociopolitical context. Our event aims on one hand to present a rich form of an artistic expression and on the other hand to represent how certain sociological circumstances can create an artistic genre which enjoys international recognition. The Moonlight Tango will present the history of the Tango genre with a historical reference to the main points of its evolution.

Historia de un amor
2021-08-04 20:30 - 21:45
Historia de um amor is a music project inspired by Cuban sounds and the Cuban tradition with the aim to introduce the rich Cuban music culture to Cypriot audiences through an entertaining, joyful, summer evening. A group of young professionals and acclaimed musicians took the initiative to select well-known and more traditional Cuban tunes, and arrange them in a unique cross-cultured, musical way to perform them in the style of a concert merging Cuban styles with personal musical influences.
The name Historia de um amor is translated into “A Love Story” and it is based on one of the most famous and most translated Spanish songs of all time, composed by Panamanian songwriter Carlos Eleta Almarán. The artistic style of the concert together with the Cuban concept and atmosphere will perfectly suit the summer climate of Cyprus and enrich the music events scene of August.
The 5-piece ensemble will be led by award-winning trumpet player Giannis Koudounas, a young Cypriot artist who is rapidly establishing himself as one of the most talented performers in Cyprus and the United Kingdom. Giannis has recently completed his Master’s degree in Trumpet Performance at the Royal Holloway University of London, awarded with the Principle’s Scholarship. All music will be arranged by award-winning composer, Cypriot-Cuban Alexandros Darna who studied Composition at Intituto Superior de Arte in Havana, Cuba. Alexandros is now a scholarship student at the Manhattan School of Music in New York and his works are internationally acclaimed.
Historia de un amor is not only a cultural, innovative project which will build the musical bridge between the Cuban musical tradition and Cyprus audiences, but it will also showcase new Cypriot talents and give the floor to remarkable, new-generation musicians, artists and performers.

Become A Beekeeper for A Day
2021-08-01, 2021-07-25, 2021-07-18, 2021-07-11
During the workshop “Become a Beekeeper for a Day” guests watch two short documentaries on life and importance of bees as well as the threats they face, and a brief discussion follows in the Educational Hall. Guests are then prepared to visit the beehives wearing the whole-body beekeeper’s suit available in all sizes to ensure safety from any bee sting. When visiting a nearby apiary we monitor the working bees at work, we identify the one and only queen of bees and observe their organization and products insight the beehives. Depending on the season, various practical manipulations of the beekeeper are carried out for the inspection of hives such as the control of the parasitic varroa mite, the collection of honeycombs, the collection of propolis, the feeding, etc. After the inspection of the hives is finished, we return to the honey extraction and bottling laboratory where a guided tour and practical use (where possible) of the machines takes place. Finally, visitors will try all batches of honey produced in the last year as well as other beekeeping or processing products such as natural beeswax ointments, soaps with honey, etc.

«Agamemnon» by Aeschylus
2021-07-16 21:00 - 2021-08-06 23:00
Aeschylus’ Agamemnon (458 BCE), THOC’s first ever staged production in 1971, is revived this summer as part of the celebrations marking the Organisation’s 50th anniversary. The tragedy, directed by Lea Maleni, is the first drama of the Oresteia, Aeschylus’ only extant trilogy. Deeply political at its core, Agamemnon limns the traces inscribed upon the fate of man by a regime where violence begets violence.
The stage is set in front of the palace of the Atrides, in Argos, where King Agamemnon returns after the end of the Trojan War, with Cassandra, King Priam’s daughter, as a trophy by his side. Clytemnestra will initially welcome him as befits a king, while playing hostess to the foreign woman. Behind this façade lurks a well-devised plan of revenge that culminates when Clytemnestra murders Agamemnon, abetted by her lover, Aegisthus.
The Aeschylian trilogy opens with an abominable act to raise the first poignant, well-timed questions of justice and democracy. Lea Maleni probes into the essence of the play with an accomplished team of actors and associates by her side, as she sets out to touch upon an enduring desideratum in a world of powers and counterpowers that has never given up the strive for equilibrium.

«Shakespeare in a Nutshell»
2021-07-16 20:00 - 2021-07-23 23:59
Dream Theatre Productions presents a site-specific performance adapted from Adam Long, Daniel Singer and Jess Winfield’s play The Complete Works of William Shakespeare (abridged). The play ingeniously joins together some of the British playwright’s greatest works, often daring to even mock some of his gravest tragedies.
Envisioned with a number of alternating roles and characters, the play is infused with improvisation as well as audience interaction and puts forth a radical interpretation of works such as, Romeo and Juliet, Titus Andronicus and Othello, presented through introductions and links that help the guide the audience. Special focus on concise versions of Julius Caesar, Antony and Cleopatra and Macbeth, as well as Hamlet.
The play is set (and will also take place) in an outdoor natural setting, without the help of stereotypical sets, with the participating actors often going beyond the roles they take on. Furthermore, the text is shaped through work done collaboratively not only before, but also, during the show.
The show is centred on movement, directed and enhanced through the music. Movement, music and direction, along with the text of Shakespeare in a Nutshell result in a performance that takes into consideration the natural environment of the communities and the traditions of the villages of Cyprus, within the framework of program Cultural Decentralization 2021.
