The fragile resilience of human boundaries. Samuel Finzi is Tiresias in Javor Gardev's staging of Euripides' tragedy The Bacchae. In this play a critical question takes centre stage: how much destabilisation can a society endure? How does the collective body metabolise an event - mentally, psychologically, and politically - before it hardens into trauma? The tragedy becomes a reckoning with the limits of orderliness, testing the resilience of both rules and institutions alike. In Euripides’ vision, Dionysian ecstasy is no carefree celebration; it is a trial for civilisation itself, pushing to extremes our obsession with control, custom, law, and self-image. The premiere will be at the renowned Athens Epidaurus Festival on 10. July 2026.
