Ceremony at the headquarters of solitude

The Institute of Global Solitude (IGS) devotes itself to the study and the promotion of aloneness. During two evenings, it opens its doors to the public. Following a strict protocol, members of the audience can visit the institute and discover a program featuring short individual meetings with members, guided tours based on the phenomenon of solitude, a conference with speeches and welcoming words, as well as a collective dinner of the united lonely souls.
IGS is a site-specific project of the Greek collective blitztheatregroup created in collaboration with local artists. A cross between documentary and fiction, performance, celebration and installation, the project conveys a playful and thoughtful exploration of the ambivalent phenomenon of solitude.
