Koinotita Bosporos (www.bosporus.org) is a Non- Governmental Youth Organisation, member of an International Network of Youth NGOs. The same organisation exists in Turkey, Germany, Bulgaria, Romania, Serbia, Bosnia, Albania, FYROM and Slovenia. Our aim is to build bridges among young people and civilizations through mutual dialogue and direct contact and to give them the opportunity to form their own clear point of view. In order to achieve that, we organize and participate in Youth bi-lateral and multi-lateral programs in our country and abroad. As an NGO coming from Greece and having a brother NGO in Turkey, we accepted the invitation of AEGEE for participating in the KayaFest, in the NGO FAIR, along with our brother Bosporos from Turkey. For us the experience was unique and great. First of all, it was such an experience to reach KayaKoy, because we needed so many hours of traveling! But as soon as we arrived at KayaKoy, we realized that we were in the best choice for a place for a Fest like that…for a meeting of the two cultures. It was an amazing place … a living witness of our past…our history. In other words, it was the best way to show us what both sides had suffered. Unfortunately for us, as Bosporus Members, we didn’t have the opportunity to “live” and participate in the Workshop experience, but of course we took part KayaFest Youth and Culture Festival Association des Etats Généraux des Etudiants de L’Europe
in the NGO FAIR and we were and are very happy for that. We wouldn’t like to state what was right or wrong in the Fest, because for us there are lots of ways to judge something. Of course, a program can always be better, than it was, but we are here to learn and progress ourselves all the time. Therefore, we want to state how necessary and great for such events to happen. The more programs take place, the more youngsters will be able to live such an experience.For us, it was a perfect, provided knowledge to lead us to the future…and everyone should try to find ways these programs to be multiplied. Thank You for giving us the chance to live this experience and we hope to meet you somewhere again. KAYAFEST ACTIVITIES 1. SOCIAL DYNAMICS AND TEAM BUILDING GAMES provided the spirit of being a team while playing these games 2. MORNING SPORTS sport activities with Bilge Korkmaz for a fit and healthy start to the coming day. 3. TREKKING from Kayaköy to Ölüdeniz with the exciting combination of the green nature and the blue sea... 4. FOOTBALL AND VOLLEYBALL TOURNAMENTS 5. SHADOW THEATRE: KARAGÖZ & HACIVAT SHOW The dance of light and darkness... The dance of Turkish and Greek traditions... The traditional Karagöz show of both Turkish and Greek cultures was performed by Emin Şenyer from Turkey and Alexander Mellissinos from Greece in two sections. Emin Senyer was born in Samsun in 1961. In May 1998, he has opened a Karagöz Exhibition in Kadıköy under the framework of Istanbul City Theatre Youth Days. Association des Etats Généraux des Etudiants de L’Europe In October 2001, he has been invited to the 23rd Mistelbach Puppet Festival in Austria to represent Turkey. He has given lectures on Karagöz puppet making and playing at Çanakkale 18 March University Education Faculty Drama Club. Alexander Melissinos is the son of the very famous Karagöz player Iason Melissinos and since his was a child he was helping his father in the shadow theatre. He studies at the Technical University at the Department of Construction and Preservation of Musical Instruments and he is working on the revival of old traditional plays of Shadow Theatre with main character Karagöz and new plays with themes from Greek Mythology and literature. He has played in many festivals in Greece and abroad: Bursa, Eskişehir, Bursa, İzmit, Gölcük. He has also organised seminars in Universities and performances in schools, museums about the history and aesthetics of world Shadow Theater and the construction of the shadow theatre figures. 6. THEATRE SPORT WITH MAHŞER-I CÜMBÜŞ “Does the act of seeing theatre performance require a theatre hall, a stage with decors and costumes, actors learning their pre-defined role by heart and lines maybe repeated 100 times to the audience? Does the theatre require from the audience to just sit and watch the play quietly and passively? Such an understanding of theatre has been fading away recently by the release of the theatre sport.” KayaFest gave the chance to experience this new kind of theatre with the performance of Turkish theatre group Mahşer-i Cümbüş. The theater sport took place several days at the village square, at the village café, where villagers of Kayaköy also took part and played performance together with Greek and Turkish youth as well as Mahşeri Cümbüş team. Mahşer-i Cümbüş was founded in 2001 May by Dr. Kadir Cevik and started its professional shows in Ankara Tenedos Cafe. Mahşer-i Cümbüş has shaped its own understanding of Theatre Sport due to its own attitude, culture, art understanding and its own audience. Without lights and without costumes, only the ‘Play’ is emphasized above everything by just using few accessories and cloth pieces. The acting technique they use also underlines the importance of the play itself with its emphasis on spontaneous thinking, acting, and destruction of illusion, black humor and irony. The relationship between the performer and the audience is based on the active participation of the audience. Each performance is a unique experience of mutual interaction for both the audience and performers, shaping each play due to the demands and suggestions of the KayaFest Youth and Culture Festival 105
