A twisted greek folk dance performance in a silent country fair for two people. 

The piece aims to relocate a particular sensation of traditional greek fairs with folk dances and music, by minimizing and twisting the movement vocabulary and steps of dances normally performed in circle by a group of people, as well as the environmental set and the sound.

The greek folk dances, are by nature collective and social, and at the same time they can be monotonous and repetitive. This fact can cause the dancer, whilst engaging in the social event, surrounded by loud music and commotion, to enter an almost hypnotic state. The performance isolates the individual experience of participating in such overwhelming social events and transforms it into a personal silent dance placed in an environment of its own.

By revealing a personal physical and mental state normally hidden in the crowd and the loudness of such events, the performance seeks to expose and share the significance and pleasure of 'pure experience'.
