Emancipated from a young age, she always aimed for a great social action and so in 1997 she founded with her own capital the non-profit foundation “The Actor’s House”, which is also her big dream.
With the honesty she always distinguishes, the great Anna Fonsou opened her soul in “Well” which is circulating talking about everything. The losses, the love, the daughter that life brought her but also the right or not of Petros Filippidis and Dimitris Lignadis to return to their work after what has happened.

-We have lost actors recently…

“Actually, a few days ago I also visited my friend Nonika Galinea for the one year anniversary of her death and the same afternoon to Katerina Helmi, who was paid a tribute to her. I realize I don’t have any girlfriends anymore, they’re all gone.”

-How do you feel about that?

“I used to be teased about it and wouldn’t watch my movies. I was the only one alive and I cut them. Then I thought that this is something that happens all over the world, I can’t say why to me. Of course I’m afraid of death, but I put my logic first, which I rarely do. I said I want to live a few years even for the people I love and for my work to be completed. That they don’t have to tear it down, but to continue it.”

-You also had a health problem a few years ago, but you returned to your duties like a lion…

“I don’t discount. I left the hospital with the serum in hand. I wasn’t scared, I said if I have to go from this, ok. I am very afraid of diseases. But as Clint Iswood said “it’s nice to face old age with fun”.

-You are truly the joy of life…

“My mother and father and sister were like that. We had nothing to eat and we laughed.”

  • The latest news is that Petros Filippidis will return to artistic events…

“Since justice has ruled that it won’t leave us all pregnant, why shouldn’t it come back? And Philippides, but also Lignadis who is my friend, if they think they can work, why don’t they work again? First of all, Dimitris is the greatest theater person and justice has decided.”

  • Did you talk to Dimitris Lignadis after his release?

“Yes, he doesn’t want to disturb others, so he doesn’t talk about what has happened. He’s not ready to do things yet, but he will be soon. Of course, I don’t know if they will give him the chance. It was a big blow what happened to him, because don’t forget that he is the son of the great Tasos Ligandis and it is not easy to put such labels on people.”

  • What do you think about the same-sex marriage and parenting bill?

“Gays don’t bother me at all, most of my friends are gay. It is known that in the theater I was also called brother mother. What bothers me is about the children. How will a child say mom and dad to two men? Gaps will be created for him. Let them wear a wedding dress themselves, it doesn’t bother me at all. Some homosexuals I know have a child and when they put an exhibition on him at school he said that the father’s name is George and the mother’s name is Andrea. He then left abroad and doesn’t want to come back.”

  • Do you need a partner?

“I have girlfriends who are so close to me that I don’t need any man to hold my hand. So many men have held my hand that it’s now paralyzed (laughs). I also have my granddaughter who is my substitute in love affairs (laughs). He is engaged in backstroke swimming.”

  • Do you remember an extreme incident with a fan that happened to you?

“A fan wrote me letters every day wanting to hold my hand. He kept calling me. I told him one day if you want, come wait outside the theater and he said of course, but what will you wear so I can meet you (laughs)”.

  • Was adopting your daughter the best thing you’ve ever done?

“Adopting my daughter was the best thing that happened in my life. When I adopted her from my sister, I decided not to have a child of my own. It totally covered me so far. He never denied me.”
