Imbued with their concerns about the human condition, the production dwells on the pain of the human soul and Man’s endless struggle to free himself of guilt and simply exist. Their preoccupation with the “seven deadly sins” gave rise to a series of fundamental, bothersome, and possibly unanswerable questions: What does ‘sin’ mean today? How do we exist in a social environment that feeds and stimulates greed and arrogance while condemning them? How can pleasure be separated from guilt? How does the body experience guilt, and what punishments does the ‘sinful’ soul impose on itself? Angeliki Stellatou and Stavros Gasparatos join forces to co-define the spirit of collaboration between two art-forms that have been flirting with one another since time began: dance and music. The performance was presented on 19.03-02.04.2011 at Onassis Stegi Main Stage.
