We travel \u201cfrom home,\u201d encountering places and situations that translate Odysseus\u2019 trials into the contemporary world. Along the way, we discover that we can never return home unchanged &#8211; our experiences transform us.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"531\" data-end=\"775\">The title Sirene refers to the mythical sirens who lured sailors &#8211; and Odysseus &#8211; astray. Today, sirens are also the sounds of war, emergency vehicles, and alarms: insistent calls that pull us out of whatever we are doing, impossible to ignore.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"777\" data-end=\"922\">The journey through the landscape becomes a journey inward. What does \u201chome\u201d mean? When do we feel called away? And how can we return stronger?<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"924\" data-end=\"966\" data-is-last-node=\"\" data-is-only-node=\"\">Winner of Progetto CURA 2024 in Italy.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Sirene, an audio performative and participatory Odyssey about home by Sara Vilardo   \/trailer EN\" width=\"1060\" height=\"596\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/K7H0LtmXC1w?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<h5 style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>ABOUT SARA VILARDO<\/strong><\/h5>\n<p data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"331\">Sara Vilardo is an actress, performer, and theatre maker, born in Milan and based in Copenhagen.
