Who counts as human? Whose lives count as lives? Let’s face it!
📅 12 July 2023
⏲️ 21:00
📍 Evanthia Kairi Theatre, Syros Island/Greece
“WE” draws inspiration from Anatolian esoterism on one hand, and from contemporary philosophy on the other hand, questioning the concepts of “unity in multitude”, “empathy”, “universal ethics”.
“Who counts as human? Whose lives count as lives? And, finally, what makes for a grievable life? Despite our differences in location and history, my guess is that it is possible to appeal to a “we”, for all of us have some notion of what it is to have lost somebody…Let’s face it”. Judith Butler, Precarious Life.
“WE” was produced for the Istanbul State Opera and Ballet - Modern Dance Ensemble Istanbul (MDTist) and is still in the MDTist repertoire. With our endless thanks to them for their support.

Istanbul Modern Art Museum, Byzantine Basilica Cistern (Istanbul), Maxim Gorki Theater (Berlin), Saint Bedros Armenian Church (Gaziantep), Archeology Museum (Sanliurfa), Suzanne Dellal Center (Tel Aviv), Les Halles de Schaerbeek (Brussels) etc.
