In an atmosphere of emotion and nostalgia, the permanent Camarini of the great Piraeus actor Dimitris Papamichail was inaugurated yesterday, at the Municipal Theater of Piraeus, one of the last wishes of the leading Piraeus actor.

The well-known actress and last partner of Dimitris Papamichael, Nadia Mourouzi, respecting his wish to create his dressing room from the historic radio station of Piraeus, granted to Channel One 90.4, objects of inestimable historical value, in order to stay forever in the city who was born and loved.

Manuscripts, photographs, theatrical costumes, his personal items and an honorary Olympic Cup are just some of the valuable exhibits in the permanent Camarini that now adorns the theater’s imposing staircase that leads to the theater’s foyer.

The implementation of this great project was done with the valuable help of the Head of Program and Culture of the Municipal Radio of Piraeus, Panagiotis Phytra.
The architectural design and artistic supervision of Dimitris Papamichail’s dressing room was undertaken by the great stage designer Manolis Pantelidakis.

The moment when the stentorian voice of Papamichail was heard in the theater, on the first signal of our city’s historic radio in 1987 and in an interview he had given in 2001 on the radio of Piraeus, was shocking.

The entire theater hummed along to “Sweet Eyes” and “Patience” from his films.
