WORKSHOP ON CONTEMPORARY GREEK THEATRE
To Tavli (The Backgammon)
by Dimitris Kechaidis
Produced by: Fivi Fildissi
Directed by: Nikos Dionysios
1. A Workshop on contemporary Greek theatre which focused on plays written after the 1950’s.
2. A tribute to Dimitris Kechaidis with his comedy THE TAVLI was rehearsed with participants from the workshop and presented in a realistic setting.
3. The performance was hosted at Popeye Roller.
A tribute to Modern Greek Theater and specifically to Dimitris Kechaidis and his playwriting with his play TO TAVLI that was written during the dictatorship years. A work that, despite the decades that have passed, remains relevant and timeless. D. Kechaidis is a pioneer in anti-racism and works prophetically for everything the world is experiencing today.
The two characters were played by Nikos Dionysios and Sotiris Michalakis.
