A few words about the show

A great musical theater production, VAT to ATTIC, father of all modern Greek troubadours.
A 20-member troupe of elite actors, singers, musicians and dancers "looking for ATTIC", the style and ethos of an entire era, through memories and senses, texts and songs that sealed our sensibility.

A throwback without a "retro" mood, but with a lot of humor, sarcasm, tenderness and emotion. At the heart of it is a hearty selection of the most beloved songs of Atticus and other leading composers of the time.

The show follows the "life saga" of Cleon Triantaphyllos-Atticus (1885-1944) and his generation. It starts from Alexandria and his Athens 1900, with the walks in Zappeion, the carols and musical evenings at the mansion of the Triantaphyllos family. It takes place in Belle Epoque Paris, with the famous Mistenge pacing at the Follies Bergères and the young Cleon at the Conservatory, musical theaters and cabarets to begin his career as "Attic" – songwriter. We follow him on his adventurous tours around the world, from America to the Russia of the Bolshevik revolution!

To end up in the Athens of the Interwar period, with "variety shows" and the famous "Mantra"! "Mantra" was Attic's temple of art and functioned for a whole decade (1930-1940), combining in a unique way elements from the Parisian boutique, the Athenian inspection, it's boring, the tavern and the music-philology gallery! It was the nursery of many great artists, as well as some of the most important lyricists and entertainers.

Case : Years ago, the dazzling Queen Ravenna killed the King on their first wedding night. Now she needs a pure heart to manage to maintain her beauty, but also her power. And the only one that exists is her heart, imprisoned in the castle for years, daughter of the king. The young girl manages to escape and seeks refuge in the Dark Forest, which is full of dangerous plants and poisonous animals. The Queen sends after her the only human who can survive in the Forest: a sad Hunter. Having long ago given up all hope of life, the Hunter accepts. But when he finds her, he hesitates… He will kill the beautiful girl; Or he will train her to be the best warrior the Kingdom has ever seen;

EXTRA!

A THRILLING ENTERTAINMENT OF THE LEGENDARY HISTORY
Get ready for a new one, deconstructed reading – adaptation of the famous fairy tale by the Brothers Grimm, of Snow White, according to which… the hunter (Thor Chris Hemsworth) not only does he refuse to meekly obey Snow White's extermination orders (starring Twilight star Kristen Stewart), but he also takes on the role of her protector and mentor, while, at the same time, the two try to escape from the evil witch (starring Charlize Theron) who pursues them…

She categorically denied the lady who is introduced as her replacement in the TV, Maria Bekatorou.

The favorite presenter, he spoke to the Star TV station, commented on what Nicole Papaioannou is spreading and declared her loyalty to the television station that featured her.


 "The truth is that when you reach a point where more people know you, maybe some are trying to take advantage of this to get their name heard more. It was a smart move. I don't know the girl, I don't know her. They also called me and told me that this was written", he said characteristically.

In fact, made it clear that she has no plans to leave the channel that made her famous.

"I am faithful to what I have learned to do so well through the frequency of TELEASTY, whatever else comes and goes, welcome to come and I discuss it and my own presence on my own channel. What is heard is one thing and what actually happens is another. Others carry them, I don't know, I've never said anything".

As for the Morning ANT1 and the rumors that they want her to present it with Grigoris Arnautoglou, she said:

"I haven't had any discussions with any channel about anything on TV next year. I say this with my hand on my heart. I don't know what will happen. I have said it with Grigoris that I love him, I consider him my friend and at some point I would like to be on television because I love him very much and I know that we match as characters".

When tourism persists culturally

The romantic coloring of the English traveler artist Edward Lear reveals – in an exhibition at the Asian Art Museum of Corfu – the virgin landscapes of the Ionian Islands of the 19th century, freed from the archeology of his time

«Around 3 in the morning we anchored in the beautiful paradise of Corfu and looked out over the calmest of seas, with the ridges of the hills covered with cypress trees and dotted with country houses all the way to the sea…», he wrote in his diary on 19 April 1848 the English traveler Edward Lear.
It is one of the notes of admiration of the English illustrator and poet of the Victorian era. Who in the spirit of 19th century travelers traveled to Greece, he was fascinated by the Ionian Sea and settled in Corfu painting watercolors, oil paintings, creating drawings and engravings.
As meticulous by nature and impressed by the beauty of the place, Lear detailed the corners of his works and the pages of his diary, and it is no exaggeration to think that if he were alive today he would be a successful social media user..
Two hundred years since his birth, the relationship of the philanthropic English artist with the Ionian Islands and especially with Corfu is reflected in the large exhibition that opened at the Museum of Asian Art under the roof of the Palaces of Archangelos Michael and Agios Georgios in Corfu.
Culture and tourism: the new product that Corfu has added to the choices of its visitors. Lear, with endless horizons, rocks bathed in evening light, seas framed by the dawn breeze, offers his share.

In the middle of the 19th century he traveled on foot or on horseback in unexplored Greece. The virgin landscapes that met his gaze he rendered in paintings. “More and more I'm getting the impression that eventually I'll mostly be known as “The Painter of Greece”», he declared himself as soon as he settled in Corfu, the 1856.

The exhibition "Edward Lear and the Ionian Islands" captures moments from his travels in the Ionian. Its significance lies in the fact that "in the vaguely melancholic landscapes from the Ionian Islands that Lear renders with romantic descriptiveness, his compatriots remotely collect the first information about the area", points out the curator of the exhibition and director of the Asian Art Museum Despina Zerniotis.
Twentieth of twenty-one children in the family of stockbroker Jeremiah Lear and his wife Ann, he was known in his homeland for poems and writings with paradoxologies (nonsense) and works with zoological illustrations. However, with the landscapes from his excursions in the Mediterranean he secured his living.

"The entirety of his Greek production constitutes a unique treasury of visual evidence for the natural environment of Greece in the 19th century. For the image of the landscape before the neo-Greek deformation and development interventions", Fani-Maria Chigaku points out, painting curator at the Benaki Museum.
Lear's humor prompted him to capture even snapshots of the daily lives of the inhabitants: villagers in local costumes of the Ionian Islands chat in front of huts or churches, they pose next to goats, while in his sketches he captured details from weddings and local festivals.
