Have you ever dreamed of flying? What would it be like if we could actually fly? How would the world look if children were truly free to place that "blue piece of cloth" wherever they imagined?

During the Theatre Lab at the 6th Primary School of Vrilissia, the children, through two different perspectives, attempted to discover what the "Halcyon Days" are.
Can a child govern the world? Can a child change the world? What would happen if children had power in their hands, even for a little while? The children of the Theatre Lab, inspired by the little man of Gaitis, the poetry of Bertolt Brecht and Marin Bodakov, and Janusz Korczak's play "King Mattias the First" in a free adaptation by Alki Zei, created their own stage composition through a creative process, posing questions about human rights, the educational system and building worlds where care and tenderness always win in the end!
