Played and directed by Nikolas Androulakis, “The Idiot” travels to Patras on Thursday, April 4, 18, 25 at the “Lithographion” Theatre.
The Idiot by Dostoyevsky
A current, real Idiot, who lives among us and practices daily to express himself with correct speech and to love unconditionally.
And you can call him too. Help with a problem, reconcile a relationship, untie a knot, reflect, exercise together. The funny, the serious, the difficult, the beautiful. Let him become your problem solver, as we used to call children. In Dostoyevsky’s Ascetic How to Become Idiots. All men, all creatures, all souls. Because that’s the point. Happiness in coexistence. Or whatever you want.
And this Idiot lives and breathes normally, months now, like always, 24/7. He works as a teacher and animator, he gets to know everyone in the singular, he does social actions and interventions, from theatrical awards at the Megaron to trials for the oppression of nature by the big contractors at the Council of State. And wherever necessary. With a suit or slippers or wellies or as the case may be. He gives his phone number without a second thought and fulfills what he promises.
And remember, others called him Stupid.
Nikolas Androulakis invites us to a reality show that will begin as a lecture, like a strange village TEDx of the early 90s and will evolve into a personal soul deposition, a confessional somersault mortale, until it melts like a candle and rises once more , so that the soul deepens and opens. Through the darkness, towards the light of each of our roles, each character. So we write self. Every day, little by little, from the beginning.
In the first complete application of the method of the Theater of Reality, as it has evolved over the last five years, philosophically, dramaturgically, interpretatively.
