Προετοιμαστείτε για μια καταπληκτική, συναρπαστική νέα θεατρική εμπειρία!
- Brutal conflicts, forbidden love and the struggle for power play out in a shocking, risk-taking and sprawling meditation on the classic mythos.• A story from the fragments of Euripides, Ovid, Pindar, the true and mythical history of Crete, and the cultural legacy of the maze and the monster.

- Profound and provocative stories that you thought you knew, re-imagined and told through ritual, sensation and transformation.
- Enter a sensual, violent, unpredictable world unlike anything you will find on stages or screens.
You Are The Story. We are The Stage. I Am The Labyrinth.
