The ancient Thracian epic comes to life on June 28 to the sounds of captivating music and spectacular choreography in the amphitheatre of Cultural and Tourist Center Aquae Calidae in Burgas, the Academia Orphica informs. In the interactive performance "Mystery of Water" the nymphs, guardians of the waters, lead us to the living springs to cleanse the senses and quench our thirst for true beauty that has the power to heal.


The day will begin with an exhibition by digital artist Dilyana Angelova, located outdoors in front of the Aquae Calidae Cultural and Tourist Center. In 26 large-scale canvases, she presents digital painting with Orphic symbolism, combining modern technologies and archetypal imagery, which provokes and creates a bridge to the spectacle in the amphitheatre among the ruins of the Thracian sanctuary in the ancient Thermopolis. All this can be experienced against the backdrop of the music of Art Formation Orphica. Visitors will also be able to talk live with the artist.
