A play with the live band A RIOT IN HEAVEN on stage. Theatre, multimedia and rock music.Sartre tells in The Flies “the tragedy of liberty against that of fatality”.The flies are the symbol of the burden of fate.
Fear is what drives people, today, to become, like in Argos, ghost like, fed by TV and sugary sodas.
“THE FLIES meets Fight Club” is a raw performance with live music: a Greek myth, revealed as a bloody tale of liberty.
