An adventurous and charming musical fairy tale, inspired by the "Southern Cross" in the poetry of Nikos Kavadias, milestone project in the career of the composer Thanos Mikroutsikos, will star at the Christmas events of the Athens Concert Hall.

The reason for the musical performance "Traveling with the Southern Cross" which is staged for ten performances from 22 until 30 December (22,23,26,27,28,29 and 30/12 at 8.30 pm and 23,26 and 30/12 at 5 pm), in the Christos Lambrakis room that has been specially designed for the event, by set designer Giorgos Vafias, like a big ship.

It is a different Christmas multi-spectacle with the participation of great singers, musicians, actors and dancers that appeals to the imagination and maturity of children but also to the sensitivity of adults.

"The Cross of the South" in poetry by Nikos Kavadias is a work alive for its creator, Thanos Mikroutsikos, since from the time of the composition of the first songs (1977) until today, it is constantly changing and is the spearhead of his songwriting. The composer's now-legendary songs that brought the "great traveler of poetry" close to the young after urging them to "dance on the shark's fin", to push their limits and conquer the impossible, today they become the trigger for a performance full of music, fairy tales and scenic symbols that aspire to take the younger generation along on a journey into the world of fantasy.

The popular compositions of Thanos Mikroutsikos – with him, of course, also present in the role of performer – they travel together with the texts written by the author Maria Papagianni, inspired by the magical images that emerge from the texts of Kavadias and others, derived from well-known nautical tales, Greek and foreign.

The performance is directed by Thanos Mikroutsikos, while the choreography is by Cecile Mikroutsikou..

Storytellers participate – singers Christos Thibeos, Kostas Thomaidis, Rita Antonopoulou and Anna Linardou.

A performance, apology and confession together. A simple act. Erasmia. A woman with passion. In the wrong place and the wrong time. In a provincial town in Greece, Erasmia, a widow trapped in a booth and the morals of small society, leads to absence.

The hair on her cheek indicates her heat, but for the town where he lives, a widow is just a used one. No rights. Antidote to her fantasy, the zucchinis. And the mind... I understand. But the bad is not long in coming.

Temptation arises. And he's short, but with qualifications. And how can Erasmia go against the libido?; Rapist and victim together, desires the forbidden. And when he dares to provoke it, immediate punishment.

Reason is a contract and what is promised must be kept.

The successful show "Notary" by Nikos Vassiliadis with Yro Manet , continues for a few more shows until early January.

At the "Theatre", Hall Iphigenia B, "Hellenic World" Cultural Center, Piraeus 254, Taurus.
