The British formula one driver will reportedly make a fully-costumed guest appearance on Thursday on the stage of 'Troya'; an historical theatre show by the Turkish folkdance troupe Anadolu Atesi.

The English language Turkish newspaper Today's Zaman explains that the show aims to celebrate the country's multiculturalism, as Turkey "has some serious troubles in internalising and making sense of differences".

The troupe's art director, Mustafa Erdogan, is quoted as saying that differences "should be treasured" because monotype cultures are "utterly boring".

'Troya' reportedly depicts 3000 years of Anatolian history, beginning with Homer's legend of Troy.
