SAILING BETWEEN ODYSSEYS
Meeting the Odyssey is an itinerant three-summer-long theater project that connects local people and artists from all over Europe. Theater makers in Europe unite their forces while sailing on the beautiful schooner Hoppet in the Baltic and the Mediterranean Sea in the spirit of the epic poem. You too can experience the Odyssey of your life! Get on board Hoppet between the theatre tours, for the transport of the ship from the Baltic to the Mediterranean Sea and back again.
WELCOME ABOARD! The trip will be commuted by Hoppet, a beautiful sailing ship, which is the last functioning Estonian schooner since the Second World War. The ship has been restored to its former glory and the home port is currently situated in Estonia. Hoppet was built in 1926 in Estonia.
