Other Kind
Wednesday 12 March

at
Camden People's Theatre
Other Kind is a sci-fi
poetic theatre play written by Christos Prossylis in 2000-2001.
An early work in progress performance was presented in
London in 2004 and a new, final adaptation of the text
became available for CosmoTheatre last summer. The
director approaches the play with somatic-movement theatre
techniques, improvisation, poetic-symbolic drama actions,
technological aspects and semiotic systems to develop
acting and directing.
THE STORY
Two human beings from the future, Dactyl
and Embryo are having a meeting in an unnamed place in our
Galaxy in the Mediterranean Sea domain. Embryo is a
product of biomechanics. Dactyl is Embryo’s friend and an
officer of the government’s system in this planet’s
community.
The system reads a radio message from the
past; according to it Embryo was born deathless in order
to destroy the Mediterranean world. Embryo knows that no
one can kill him/her and s/he will destroy this world. So
s/he makes a decision: to leave this world and the friend,
to transform him/herself in an “other kind” of life, an
absolutely innocent kind: a flower...
