Stefania Goulioti
The Eumenides, by Aeschylus
Why the Eumenides? “Because it is one of the most neglected texts, but with huge hidden meanings which are directly linked to psychoanalysis,” says Stefania Goultioti, one of the most important actresses of her generation, as she explains her choice. “The evil Furies are transformed into Eumenides (kindly ones), in an effort to silence the voices that keep buzzing in people’s heads. Voices judging, commenting, comparing, assuming… Voices that express insecurities, fears, guilt, and malice; voices that remain stuck in the past.” The aim is to find the thread that will link the viewer with the writer, without the mediation of the actor’s superego.
