The new show by Alexandros Rigas and Dimitris Apostolos.

Long live Greek children; And if you're alive... answer us a question... How did we get here?; What did he do?; Our bad fate; Our evil the radical; Our head; Our zodiac sign; Ares the retrograde; Our mistakes…; It is probably because the glorious history of Greece is inversely proportional to our memory (maybe even our future) she is short and small. We forgot what we lived through, what we put up with, what did we get into, how unfairly we have treated ourselves, in this country and those around us and above all how we let "friends" and enemies patronize us leading us to the painful today. Let's take another look at the armed sadistic MAT policeman to understand, that nothing is ultimately what it seems. To hear the absurd ravings of a politician in open confession giving absolution to his colleagues. Get insights from the life story of a married couple who devise the most unlikely ways to deal with the crisis. To eavesdrop on what happens in an emergency cabinet on the day that (will) Greece goes bankrupt and the live connection of the bankruptcy with many, many and expensive ads... Let's see how effectively the exchange economy works through the intelligence of a former ASEP non-designate and now a prostitute. Let's shudder with the gloomy image of Greece in 2042...where they celebrate the 100 years from the German occupation and again from the Germans. Yes...yes...yes... And many more that are useful to remember, to understand them, let's laugh at our "faces" and introduce ourselves again... and who knows, maybe we'll avoid the worst... The show will be staged in a few days at Lampeti theater.
