Once again, the participation of volunteers and local residents is significant, as they eagerly anticipate and warmly embrace the Festival each year. Starting from the Old Primary School of Thermes, the Festival transforms various locations across the island into vibrant cultural hubs.In addition to already recognized productions traveling to Samothrace, again this year several fully developed theatrical performances as well as theatrical lectures will begin their journey on the island. In this way, the remote island of Samothrace becomes a center for cultural creation and the export of artistic activity, while the Festival establishes itself as a pillar supporting contemporary dramaturgy.
