"Mythologion" The House of Oral Tradition

The House of Oral Tradition "Mythologion" is a social cooperative founded by 8 storytellers who are also artists,singers, musicians, actors, scientists, teachers and writers.
Our interest in storytelling brought us together, and we decided to work, uniting our efforts, our experiences, our knowledge and our love for storytelling to disseminate the idea that orality, the spoken word, is essential for society and humanity.

We create storytelling performances, we organise events, educational projects and workshops about the oral tradition and all kinds of stories, at our own space and elsewhere.
We cooperate with other organisations and institutions, and people from all over the world.

We believe that our stories are what we are- the stories we tell and listen to, stories about ourselves, others, and the world we live in, myths, wondertales, history, "true" stories, jokes- all narrative invented and composed is the main element of our identity, as individuals or as members of a community, or a nation. Those stories determine and define our place in the world we live in, and how we interact with it.

Founders:
Sylvia Venizelea, Eleanna Gerontopoulou,Manya Maratou,Andreas Michailidis,Lamia Bedioui,Xrysa Kapartziani,Nausica Kapsala,Vasiliki Psarra
