Women that Became One with the Earth
The performance “Women that Became One with the Earth” comprises seven popular narratives of women from Epirus, which refer mainly to the period around 1940 and have been recorded by the writer Georgia Skopouli (“Those Who Became One with the Earth”, Dodoni 2008).
Several rural women marked by the elements of nature, by poverty, war, civil war, exile, the cruelty of men, talk about their lives in a plain language, sincere and true, reviving a Greece that we have almost forgotten.
These illiterate women share their experiences with dignity and faith in life, but above all without bitterness and hatred, turning their troubled lives into a song.
