Scotch Literature Festival 2005 >  Andreas Litras

Andreas Litras
image Andreas Litras
Andreas Litras is a second generation Greek Australian whose parents migrated to Australia after WWII. After growing up in Ballarat, Andreas journeyed back to Greece. His travel in Greece inspired questions of identity and belonging, prompting him to create the theatre show Odyssey, which has performed at the Melbourne International Festival, the Telstra Adelaide Festival and the Sydney Carnivale Festival.
Odyssey (Yr 10 Performence)
Andreas Litras' remarkable solo show weaves the stories of Andreas' migrant family through the legend of Odysseus, hero of Troy. While Andreas shares his stories of family and fish'n'chips, it is the character of Karagiosi, the comic, wise cracking, stage manager who has the audience in hysterics with own personal rendition of Homer's Odyssey. Journeys and characters cross paths as the performance moves between Greece and Australia, past and present, and memory and imagination.
