STAVROS NIARCHOS FOUNDATION CULTURAL CENTER - LIGHTHOUSE

PRESENTATION

The SNFCC readers' theater series, entitled PARABASES/READINGS, that concludes this April, returned to the core of stage reading this year, drawing inspiration from Cavafy's verse, "Voices, loved and idealized."

Seven theater protagonists, seven "idealized voices," comprised two-people theater companies (in collaboration with young stage directors, renowned Greek composers and/or on-stage musicians) and attempted live theatrical readings of literary texts (short stories, novels, prose), all of them landmark works of Greek literature. In this way, the series utilizes the dramaturgy of the Readings that were recorded and presented by the SNFCC during 2020-2021, attracting great interest from the public.

The texts selection was compiled in collaboration with poet Nikos A. Panagiotopoulos (December 1945 - July 2023), to whose memory the series is dedicated.

Sunday, April 28, 20.00 | LIGHTHOUSE

Anna Kokkinou collaborates with Nikos Veliotis and reads Moskov Selim by Georgios Vizyinos.

Published in 1895, a year before the death of Georgios Vizyinos, the father of the Modern Greek short story, "Moskov-Selim" is his last and, by general consensus, his most important short story.

Anna Kokkinou, one of the most significant figures in our contemporary theater, has previously engaged with the author's work with great success, as her performance, "Forms from the Work of Vizyinos," has made an era.

Simultaneous interpretation into the Greek Sign Language will be available.
