ECHOES

Lieve de Putter

Echo: Spoke too much and was forever cursed to echo what others say.
Philomela: Tongue severed and could not tell what had been done to her.
Cassandra: A prophetess that no one would believe.
Arachne: Said the wrong thing in the face of the gods.
Helen: Bound to Troy and never allowed to tell her own story.

ECHOES is a one-woman-show about the silencing and loss of the female voice.
Using stories from classical mythology, the play weaves between modern and ancient narratives, as an actress confronts her ironic fear of her own voice, and tries to find out how she can reclaim not only her own voice, but also those of the women whose voices have been suppressed and distorted for centuries by male dominated scholarship.
The show is a comical and confrontational depiction of women's struggles throughout the ages and shows how the female experience echoes through time.
