Theatre: Atrapadas

Atrapadas

“Impossible to differentiate one day from another. Difficult to trust that something will happen that can change things. The routine of survival is imposed on the misery of knowing that, after a long journey, after resisting bombings and enduring the harshness of the road, we arrived at this situation. Europe became an immense disappointment, almost unassimilable, for the “lucky” ones who arrived alive in the Old Continent.“

ATRAPADAS tells the story of Somod, Aicha, Amal, Anin, Zahraa, and Hasisa, Syrian women refugees in the port of Piraeus in Greece, one of the largest camps for refugees fleeing the war in Syria.

Two actresses give body and voice to the real witnesses of these women who tell us about their flight from war: the hard journey to Piraeus, hunger, rape, sanitary conditions, separation of families … They unravel their lives with words.

ATRAPADAS relies on the story of the actresses and everyday objects, which illustrate the narrative and take on a strong symbolic power.
