The Spazio Patio has been reinterpreted here in terms of its second name, the one by which it is usually known, the Agora.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p5\"><span class=\"s1\">So we decided to go back to the source of the sources, to the beginnings of theater as it has come down to us, in Greek tragedy. With regard both to the space and to the theatrical content. The staging for the performance was the winner of a competition among the students of the course of set design: the design has divided the place into three spaces in the image of the Greek <\/span><span class=\"s2\"><i>skene<\/i><\/span><span class=\"s1\">, the orchestra for the chorus and the tiers of seating for the audience, creating a modern semicircular space typical of the oldest theaters.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p6\"><span class=\"s1\">The performance unites Greek tragedy, history and contemporary poetry in its exploration of the ever present conflict between East and West, as presented to us by Aeschylus, Herodotus and Adonis. The texts on which the work is based are Aeschylus\u2019s <\/span><span class=\"s2\"><i>The Persians<\/i><\/span><span class=\"s1\"> and Herodotus\u2019s <\/span><span class=\"s2\"><i>The Histories<\/i><\/span><span class=\"s1\">.
