The Pirates of Carthage
The Pirates of Carthage is a play by Daniel Kelly which examines the recent uprising across Tunisia alongside The Mercenary War (264-241 BC) in the ancient city of Carthage. The stories of uprising and rebellion from different centuries are relayed in parallel on stage using the media in which Kelly first experienced them, Gustave Flaubert historical novel Salammbo, and the ubiquitous social networking platform Twitter.
Fusing spoken word, video montage and Tunisian Hip-Hop, The Pirates of Carthage questions our increasing dependence on the media for information and explores how we connect with the world around us.
The Pirates of Carthage will consists of a live stage event, Interactive radio performance, artist talk and ongoing online archive and an accompanying publication.
