Classical theatre meets Greek myth in Montebelluna
The Mythos Festival is the classical theatre review that, born in Treviso, extends to Montebelluna, in the province of Treviso. Curated by the Tema Cultura Association, the festival reinterprets the great Greek myths and figures of antiquity with a contemporary theatrical language and avant-garde staging techniques.
The 2026 edition, titled Olympia 2026, is dedicated to classical Greek sport as a ยซrite, myth, and celebration of immortal fameยป, in dialogue with the Milan-Cortina Winter Olympics. The performances take place between the MeVe โ Villa Correr Pisani and the Auditorium of the Municipal Library in Montebelluna, two locations that provide a refined backdrop for a journey through theatre, words, and images.
Mythos involves several cities in the Veneto region in a program that intertwines myth, history, and current events. In Montebelluna, the events range from female figures of antiquity to Homeric heroes, with performances combining acting, music, and cinematic techniques, enhancing the cultural heritage of the Marca Trevigiana.
