O mortal! If you despise the sky,

Euripides "Bacchae"
Dramatic-choreographic-music-media-visual play with elements of performance.
At the heart of the performance is one of the main ancient Greek tragedies of Euripides - Bacchae, written 2424 years ago.
Tragedy develops the myth of Dionysus.
This young god comes to his homeland in Thebes to establish his cult, but he encounters opposition from King Pentheus, who considers the new cult immoral.
By turning a person inside out, facing metamorphosis and animal instincts located in each of us, passing the infinite path of knowledge, Dionysus leads his heroes along the path of tragedy to know himself true through ecstasy.
The scene of the performance takes place in two locations: in the modern religious sect and the underground nightclub "DIONYSOS! Club». With its own traditions and rules.
Scenography, which turns the whole space of the theater into a nightclub with a bar and dance floor acting for the audience, modern choreography, eclecticism of current musical directions TECHNO, IDM, AMBIENT, LIVE ELECTRO ACOUSTICS, shamanic rituals of different nations of the world performed live and questions posed in the ancient text, not lost relevance today, will try to incorporate the viewer's imagination to enter the mystery and the relationship of his personal experience with the drama.
