Theatre Performance by our Young Justice Transformers
A Mock Trial Brought to the Stage
Aikaterini Papageorgiou is the theatre director for this year’s cultural event and Artistic Director of Theatro Bellos. This year’s performance will take the form of a mock trial theatre piece, created in collaboration with the Young Justice Transformers from Netherlands, Bulgaria and Greece, who will also be the main actors.
Aikaterini collaborates with DCI Greece in the Young Justice Transformers Programme -funded by CFJ-EN - aiming at rehabilitating and empowering children and young people who have been in contact with justice system.
Through workshops and rehearsals, the group has collectively developed a fictional judicial case inspired by stories of children in contact with the justice system. The performance invites participants to engage in courtroom debate, offering a powerful and deeply personal insight into navigating justice as a child in Europe.
The piece will culminate in a staged court decision, followed by a live discussion with the audience on justice, fairness, rehabilitation, and children’s rights.
A special thank you goes to Aikaterini Papageorgiou, who has made this unique collaboration possible at Theatro Bellos.
