Mythos Troina Festival

Mythos Troina Festival is a summer theatre festival set in the ancient town of Troina, in the heart of Sicily, which brings classical myths to life through contemporary performance. Each edition offers an immersive journey of site-specific shows, monologues, and reinterpretations of legendary figures like Antigone, Medea, and Cassandra, reimagined through the lens of today’s social and existential questions. Performances unfold in symbolic locations—towers, churches, open-air stages—creating a powerful synergy between stage and setting. The festival also includes artist talks, workshops, and an experimental section exploring new performative languages and hybrid forms. Mythos Troina is more than a festival: it’s a shared experience that blends tradition, critical reflection, and civic engagement, using myth as a mirror to explore identity, otherness, transformation, and the human condition.
