Memory Workshop in Platanistasa

An experiential theatre workshop that invites participants to discover, share and bring to life the personal and collective memories of their community. Through theatre games, creative writing exercises and improvisation, residents' accounts will be transformed into original theatre stories, which will be presented openly to the public. With particular emphasis on the participation of people over 60 years of age, the activity aims to preserve valuable testimonies and experiences, strengthening intergenerational communication and the cultural identity of every community. At the same time, the creation of a short documentary and a commemorative booklet will preserve the stories and memories of the participants, creating a valuable archive of intangible cultural heritage for future generations.
