• Sophocles’ Electra, directed by Lillys Meleme at the Municipal Theater of Ilioupoli “Dimitris Kintis”

On Saturday September 9, at 21:00, the performance of “Electra” by Sophocles, directed by Lillys Meleme, continues its summer tour at the Municipal Theater of Ilioupoli “Dimitris Kintis”. A universe drowning in corruption and injustice. An anti-heroic world where everything has been turned upside down and the order of things has been dangerously disrupted. In this world, Elektra chooses to be the only cell of living consciousness that will not cease to denounce immorality and hypocrisy in perpetuity. Her voice is a brave and dynamic act of active resistance that constantly disturbs and incessantly reminds of the need to redress the horrible injustice. This obsessive attachment to her principles and ideals will undoubtedly wear her down as well.

They play: Lena Papaligoura, Elisavet Moutafi, Ioannis Papazisis, Stratis Hadjistamatiou, Erietta Manouri, David Maltese, Paris Leontios.
Saturday 9/9, 21:00
