A Dress Story

A Dress Story is a movement and storytelling performance that tells the stories of a group of young girls from Banati foundation. The stories reflect their lives in the shelter now and their lives before joining Banati, and the social stigma.

The performance is the outcome of a movement and storytelling workshop with girls from The workshop started in February 2017, in partnership with Banati Foundation and in collaboration with Drosos.
A Dress Story is the second performance with Banati. Last year, BuSSy organized a storytelling and theater workshop with the same group. The outcome of the workshop was a performance named I Wish.
