With a troupe of 17 people, “To Klouvi me tis Treles” is coming to Thessaloniki from today. The multi-award-winning play, which became the most successful commercial film of its time and a glamorous Broadway musical, comes to the theater “Athens» adapted and directed by Vassilis Platakis.

The show is a satire – a landmark of sexism and morals. Combined with family values, eccentric humor, love and companionship, a play full of color, sparkle, impressive costumes and choreography is composed.

THE case takes place in Saint Tropez on the Côte d’Azur, where the manager of the luxurious night club “The Crazy Cage”, has been a couple for twenty years with the Drag Queen star of the main show of the shop. But when his son decides to marry the daughter of a member of parliament from the conservative party “Union for Moral Order” and his wife’s godmother, their routine is fundamentally disrupted.

In fact, the meeting of the prospective companions brings one misunderstanding after another. Things get even more complicated with the appearance of the biological mother of the groom, which causes a scandal, which paparazzi-journalists are determined to capture.

“It was a difficult decision to come to Thessaloniki, because a troupe of 17 people means a lot of expenses. We guarantee that the viewer will be compensated by the spectacle, from which many messages will arise, much laughter, even emotion”, noted the director of the show.

The balance between the comedy and the dramatic scenes was also commented on by Maurikios Maurikiou, who, in addition to playing the lead role, also composes and orchestrates the music.

“The show has the peculiarity that in one scene you can cry from emotion and seconds later, you can cry from laughter. The directorial vision of Vassilis is great, he put these touches in a surgical way, as well as the “embroidery” he did, taking elements from the two film versions of the work, the prose and the musical, interspersing them with some modern elements that make the they took off”, said Mr. Mavrikiou.
