January 11th to February 26th 2013
The theatrical presence of Dimos Avdeliodis at the Michael Cacoyannis Foundation
5 different plays of the last 3 years in 8 nights
Five different and notable theatrical performances, directed by Dimos Avdeliodis during the last three years will be presented afresh by the Michael Cacoyannis Foundation during January and February 2013.
Dimos Avdeliodis has been identified with two emblematic performances of Greek theatre, the Forms of the Viziinos work, in 1992 and Alexander the Great and the Cursed Dragon, in 2007.
The extraordinary common character which all of his performances have, is the designation of the word, as main factor towards the understanding of the meaning as well as the peculiar use of the visual arts elements and the lighting within this spirit.
Avdeliodis himself supports that “Aim of every performance is the designation of the feelings and the notion which overflow the mind and the heart of the writer. Therefore we have to consider that every single text is just like an orchestral score, which has to be “read” properly, in order to be listened the way its creator would wish.”
The Michael Cacoyannis Foundation offers the opportunity to the ones who haven’t attended any of the five performances of D. Avdeliodis and his partners to enjoy them in an extraordinary “festival”.
