Thanos Polymeneas Liontiris‘ research looks at traditional opera in relation to interactive music theatre and how the two can coincide in one performance. He is interested in putting opera outside of the traditional context of large music halls and instead placing it within an immersive environment that participants can walk through and experience.

His residency culminated in a fantastic event held at our studio in Portslade, where he created two spaces for the public to experience in order to test his new ideas.

Thanos also wrote a guest blog which describes his work in more detail.

The work was realised with the unconditional support and collaboration of Eugenia Demeglio, Nikos Ioakeim and Stephanie Pan.
