Attitudes By Dimitris Raptis Group and "Body As"
By Dimitris Raptis and the “Soma Os” Group
As a performer, choreographer, director and creative mind of the “Soma Os” Group, Dimitris Raptis plays a growingly important part in Thessaloniki’s cultural scene by working under very strict criteria: from “Antisomata” to “Arxontiko tis Minore”, his basic principle is that the body should speak. To be able to express itself through a combination of vibrancy and vigilance in order to be in a position that allows it to feel, act, and claim responsibility for its actions.
Following the self titled workshop by himself and the “Soma Os” Group, scheduled from 13 to 17 October, the participants will have the opportunity to become members of a performance which aims to explore the lengths of the human eagerness for communication.
