RE-TIED RED THREAD / -

Adapted & Directed by Fotis Batzas

The Greek folk tales are a unique heritage that reflect the innermost needs and quests of early societies. The ancient art of storytelling appears in different ways in each region as the function of these traditional stories defines the boundaries of the common acceptable for a community-and very often surpasses them. By repetition from word of mouth and from generation to generation, the folk tale becomes a yardstick, a pattern of behavior and a benchmark that connects the past with the present. It offers something greater than mere entertainment for the audience: without being bound by specific events or experiences, the folk tale gives the world its poetic expression.

The goal of our show is to connect with a meaningful and entertaining way the rich and popular tradition of our country with the Greek diaspora and keep alive our language and customs.
