LYRIC STAGE : Summer with Shakespeare and Verdi

"Romeo and Juliet" at the Concert Hall open the curtain of the summer program. There will be more to come 44 performances until July


"Trovatore" at the Herodeion and dance evenings in the shadow of the Acropolis include the summer program of the National Opera

Despite the difficult financial conditions, the "National Opera" is intensifying its outgoing course this summer. In the difficult economic situation, the only opera theater of our country responds with 45 performances - from small productions to operas at Herodeion- within a period of three months (May, June, July). Lyrika's summer program "is designed around four main axes: the new opera productions, ballet productions, educational programs and actions outside Athens", emphasized yesterday during his presentation the artistic director of ELS, Myron Michaelidis.
Two operas in Herodion. Verdi's Trovatore, one of the most popular works of the leading Italian author who has rightly been called "the archetypal romantic melodrama".

The production, which is traditionally included in the program of the Athens Festival, directed by the Italian Stefanos Ponta, a special artist with a visual eye, whose works are characterized by their aesthetic unity (10, 12, 13, 14/6). One of the most famous… opera thriller, "Tosca", Puccini's masterpiece, the ELLS summer program will be closed. The direction, he has taken over the sets and costumes, here, the internationally acclaimed Argentinian opera director Hugo De Ana (26, 27, 28, 29/7). With psychoanalysis as the main thematic element, the Modern Opera will premiere at the "Olympia" theater, the "European Music Day" (21/6). Three one-act plays will be presented in a single setting, two of which are by young Greek composers and resulted from the competition for "New Opera Work by a Greek Composer". Ballet performances begin tonight with "Romeo and Juliet", at the Concert Hall. Two evenings of dancing follow in the Roman Agora where, in the shadow of the Acropolis, the ELLS ballet will perform two choreographies by Renato Zanella on top of two of the most beautiful piano concertos ever written. This is the piano concerto no. 23 by Mozart and the "Imperial" piano concerto no. 5 of Beethoven (30/6 and /7).

The new choreographers of the ELS Ballet will present their choreographies at the "Olympia" theater (14 and 15/7). "Our important priority" is education, underlined Mr. Michailidis, before referring to the first phase of the new educational program "Opera interactively in Primary Schools", during which students will watch Rossini's The Barber of Seville (until its end 2013 production will visit 70 schools throughout Greece). A new and very important collaboration begins with the National Library, in view of the future co-housing at the "Stavros Niarchos" Foundation Cultural Center. It opens with the performance "Bohemian" by Valitsa Opera (27/5).

Ancient theaters

Lyriki aims to carry out actions in places outside of Athens. Its first major collaboration this year aims to highlight ancient theaters throughout Greece and is with the association "Diazoma". It will present shows in restored theaters, starting with Puccini's "Bohemian" at the Ancient Theater of Messina (6, 7/7) and in the Ancient Theater of Oiniades (13/7). The Ballet will present excerpts from this year's productions, , at the Aegean Festival (19, 20, 22/7).

Athena Economakou : The love of her life and second chances

In an interview with "Glam" magazine, Athina Economakou talked about the men and love in her life:

"I fall in love only with intensity. I think every person who falls in love goes to extremes. I live it, i surrender, I don't keep things," said the 26-year-old actress, while at another point he commented that "when you are in love even an indifferent look from your partner is enough to destroy you".

Explaining how, despite the fact that he realizes that this may be utopian, she herself believes in "forever", Athena Economakou explained: "I am very emotional and sensitive. I want all of these, is my request. This is what I dream about. I know it's very difficult, especially in our time. I know it may never happen to me. But I am, optimistic and I like to dream".

End, she admitted that she gives second chances when she's in love: "Yes, give, I'm not the first to quit. Basically I think I'm forcing my partner to say "we're breaking up"…».

George Ninios : «Το κασέ μου έπεσε πολύ»

C. Νινιός: Κανείς δεν πρέπει να γκρινιάζει

«Το κασέ μου έπεσε πολύ. Σχεδόν τίποτα δεν θυμίζει τα παλιά μου κασέ, αλλά δεν θα γκρινιάξω!» Αυτό αποκάλυψε ο Γιώργος Νινιός όταν ρωτήθηκε για το αν έριξε το κασέ του στη σειρά «Είναι στιγμές».

Και συνέχισε: «Κανείς δεν πρέπει να γκρινιάζει. Και δεν πρέπει να το κάνει όταν βλέπεις γύρω σου γεροντάκια να ψάχνουν τα σκουπίδια. Να μιλήσω εγώ για ψαλίδα και για το πόσα έχασα; Ντρέπομαι. Από την άλλη ναι, αποδέχεσαι τα όποια χρήματα. Τι να κάνεις; Αν πω εγώ όχι, πει και ο άλλος, θα πάψουν πλέον να γίνονται δουλειές! Αυτό θέλουμε; No, βέβαια», δήλωσε στο TVΈθνος.

The new Toyota Supra is a hybrid!

May Toyota's new GT86 impress, but the insider reports that the Japanese brand is almost certain about the hybrid "nature" of the new flagship Supra!
The revival of Toyota's fastest production model with the historical name Supra, seems to be closer than ever. It may not have been officially given the go-ahead, but the increasingly leaked information states that the model will use a V6 layout engine with a capacity of 3,5 l, while he will be placed in the center. But the most important element of the model, is that this will be a hybrid!

So, the new Supra, except for the motor we mentioned above, it will also use two electric motors that will drive the front wheels, as opposed to the gasoline engine that will move them behind. The final power of the four-wheel drive model is estimated at 405 horsepower, while the first estimates indicate that the model will cost approx 60.000 dollars, with presentation time the 2015.

For the time being, I don't even think about it…she said herself, while when asked if he has ever come close to marriage, he replied: "No. I only got to “if, with this person that I am now, may things continue to be good in the long run, maybe i'll think about it". I never thought about it when I was living it".

End, for the presentation of ANT1's summer morning, stated that "I have discussed absolutely nothing with anyone about this", while she added about her experience last year: "I had a great time last year at Elatte. And the information part was an opportunity for me to deal with what I've studied and I hadn't dealt with it. I had my ears open to anything that was going on and I still do.”.
