The fate of Iphigenia in a new dress
Before or after your visit to the voting booth, come and catch a Greek tragedy at the Children's Rights Square! KOPERGIETERY participates in NTGent's free city festival ‘All Greeks’, where every day in open air a brand new Greek tragedy is born, as a recurring ritual for and by the city.
On 9 June at 11am, KOPERGIETERY provides a retelling of Iphigenia, the Greek princess who was meant to be sacrificed by her own father during the mythical Greco-Trojan War. Will it be a wedding or a funeral after all? Step into the shoes of Iphigenea and come and find out for yourself. Together with young people from the theatre workshops of KOPERGIETERY, Iphigenea forms a sounding board for the voice of innocence.
