Corto Layus

Polyphemus is a cyclops: half man, half god, a giant with only one eye, a monster. But he also knows emotions, desires, doubts and is in love with the most beautiful: Galatea. All the elements of the drama are in place for this mythological fable that questions difference, injustice, the way we look at each other. This original theatrical installation composed of three autonomous structures in the form of boxes, invites the spectators to a strong encounter. What if the monster isn’t who we think it is?
