Eleni Papalexiou, Julius Caesar. Spared Parts. Dramatic intervention on W. Shakespeare, Kypria International Festival 2019, October 2019

The “spared parts” will bring “on stage”, one after the other, three historical figures of theatre and politics: the mysterious Mr. …vski, evoking the father of dramatic art Constantin Stanislavski, the silent and aged Julius Caesar, the masterly orator Mark Anthony, played by an actor who has undergone laryngectomy. [...] The performance is centered on questions concerning rhetoric, the art of acting, the power of persuasion, and the omnipotence of hollow political discourse.
