The Glass World, directed by Giorgos Nanouris at the Petra Theater
O “Glass world” by Tennessee Williams, directed by Giorgos Nanouris, with Katia Dandoulakis in the iconic role of Amanda and Ioanna Pappas, Konstantinos Bibi, Reno Rota, returns with a tour to Greece this summer as well. The Glass World – perhaps the most representative work of the author who marked post-war America with his drama – was written in 1944. It is a work of poetic breath and deep human sensitivity, where the world of harsh reality is intertwined with the fragile beauty of imagination and dream.

Bacchus: A Subversive Queer Reading of Euripides’ Tragedy at Piraeus 260
THE Elli Papakonstantinou presents for the second day the “Bacchies” at Piraeus 260, as part of the Athens and Epidaurus Festival. The Greek creator who in recent years has won international recognition, delivers to the public an original reading of the tragedy of Euripides, a contemporary play about the fluidity of the sexes, which connects theater, opera, music and performance. “Drawing from the well-known myth, I write and direct a play about the end of the patriarchy. At its core, femininity and queer. In Bacchus I read exactly this opening of the era towards the possibility of another understanding of the world”, says Elli Papakonstantinou herself.
