For three weeks, the
Peloponese will be the recipient of a joyful invasion of an art group
consisting of numerous artists from far-away Indonesia, carrying with them
a whole stage on wheels. It is the traveling group ‘Stage Bus’ which
just started its tour and will continue until the 14th of
September, visiting towns in the seven prefectures of the Peloponese; they
will be giving performances with singing, music, dance, shadow theatre and
video projections. This colourful
tour is under the auspices of the Indonesian government and the Cultural
Olympiad. A specially transformed bus, a stage on wheels, with all the
necessary equipment (shadow theatre screen, video projectors, a grand
piano, drums), transports the 20 Indonesian artists to towns like Argos
(today, 26/8), Lerna (27/8), Tripoli, Sparti, Gytheion, Kalamata, Ancient
Olympia and elsewhere, giving a unique performance at each location.
