What happens when we tell a myth from ancient Greece to today’s kids? What goes through their minds when they hear the stories of Prometheus, Ariadne, Icarus, the Minotaur or Phaeton? Prometheus is the first chapter of the ‘Olympus’ project, the theatrical series created by Agrupación Señor Serrano to reinterpret the myth through contemporary languages. On stage, a narrator-demurgeon uses construction bricks, miniature figures, video cameras and online resources to tell kids about a world that no longer exists (and perhaps never did), but which can still teach us a lotl.
