• The Veraman Dress, by Anna Vagena at the Metaxourgeio Theatre

“To Veraman Forema”, the first short story by Anna Vagena from “OTAN” publications, is performed in the form of a monologue by her, and is staged at the Metaxourgeio Theater. It is a tender love story, with a lot of humor and emotion, about a love that came late. A story about two lonely people, in a Retirement Home, Irini who, although she has children, fate brings her to such a place and Mr. Fotis, a bachelor by conviction. What can happen to a mother’s soul when her children put her in a Nursing Home? What can be happening in the soul of children, when they resort to such a solution? And yet, what is love like when life is coming to an end? The “Veraman Dress” talks about all this, against the background of the corona virus era.

Every Saturday at 21:00 and Sunday at 19:30
€15 (general admission), €12 (students, unemployed, pensioners over 65, those with many children)

  • Giorgos Tolis: “Wanderings of Imagination” paintings at the “Melina” Cultural Center

Exhibition

On Friday, March 1st (at 6:30 p.m.) at the “Melina” Cultural Center of the Municipality of Athens, the third solo exhibition of Giorgos Tolis, entitled “Wanderings of Imagination”, opens. As the artist himself states: “Minotaurs and Satyrs, Carmen and Archangels, Medea and Harlequins, Universe and Quantum make up the visual environment of my work, where bright colors, countless shapes, faces and lines overflow. I paint images, figures, my experiences, the experiences of my wanderings like Odysseus, seeking the mental tone that my soul and my imagination require. Since I was little, I’ve been walking alone, I’m a loner. I like to wander in strange paths of art, the result of which I deposit as an opportunity for love in painting.”

From Tuesday to Friday 11:00 – 19:00 and Saturday and Sunday 10:00 – 15:00
