Summary

The research project “Metamorphosis” examines the stage space as an autonomous and co-creative factor in the performing arts, using “ELENIT” by Euripides Laskaridis as a case study. It analyzes how light, set objects, materials, and performers compose an experiential, non-realistic world that operates beyond traditional plot structures. Through a spatial–visual and semiotic approach, scenography is explored as a generator of narrativity, where the absence of a script does not prevent the creation of meaning. The role of lighting, fixed and movable sets, as well as absurdity as a narrative tool, highlights stage space as a key bearer of meaning—capable of creating atmosphere, determining the flow of action, and shaping the audience’s experience. “ELENIT”, rejecting realism, focuses on the bodily and sensory experience, transforming scenography into a protagonist of theatrical storytelling.
