Maria Kalogeropoulou Callas, The Woman and The Artist
2019-05-23 20:30 | Markideio Theatre, 27 Andrea Geroudi Paphos, Paphos 8010, Cyprus, Paphos, 8010, Cyprus
The event is the greatest homage ever presented in Cyprus about the life and work of the most important soprano of the 20th century, Maria Kalogeropoulou, known as Maria Callas (1923-1977). The performance presents her artistic career, from her early steps in the field of lyrical theatre to her unexpected death.
Word and music are combined harmoniously by the two protagonists, the soprano Chryso Makariou and the actor Achilleas Grammatikopoulos. Mr. Grammatikopoulos plays the role of a director who is about to direct a production regarding the Greek Diva but does not know enough about her and Ms. Makariou presents with her vocal skills the role-heroines that marked and established Callas as the absolute Opera Diva. The two protagonists are accompanied by the internationally-renowned Bulgarian Baritone Krum Galabov, the Pianist Zbynek Marouska and on the flute by Theodoros Krasidis.
The conception of the event combines, in addition to the interpretation of the most characteristic arias and opera scenes of Callas, audiovisual material in the form of collages, rare photographic material and interviews. The tremendous work of the research was undertaken by the Historian Musicologist Dr Spyridoula Katsarou, while the editing was made by Maria Avraam. The monologue / narrative is based on unique sources and archives, amongst others, such as the one of ERT (Greek National Television), the National Opera of Athens, the National Conservatory of Athens, as well as large collections of personal items and letters by Maria Callas from private collectors.
The homage aims at the most complete presentation of Maria Kalogeropoulou as a personality with specific ideas and perceptions about art and especially about opera, as a person in all its dimensions and expressions as a continuously evolving musician in dialogue with her audience, as a creator of a particular image: La Callas.

The Dinner
2019-05-24 20:30 | Pattihio Theater Limassol, Agias Zonis 6 Limassol, Limassol 3027, Cyprus, Limassol, Cyprus
A play based on the novel by the Dutch author Herman Koch.
The darkly suspenseful, highly controversial tale of two families struggling to make the hardest decision of their lives – all over the course of one meal.
It’s a summer’s evening in Amsterdam, and two couples meet at a fashionable restaurant for dinner. Between mouthfuls of food and over the polite scrapings of cutlery, the conversation remains a gentle hum of polite discourse – the banality of work, the triviality of the holidays. But behind the empty words, terrible things need to be said, and with every forced smile and every new course, the knives are being sharpened.
Each couple has a fifteen-year-old son. The two boys are united by their accountability for a single horrific act; an act that has triggered a police investigation and shattered the comfortable, insulated worlds of their families. As the dinner reaches its culinary climax, the conversation finally touches on their children. As civility and friendship disintegrate, each couple show just how far they are prepared to go to protect those they love.

22nd Contemporary Dance Festival - The Netherlands
2019-06-02 20:30 | Rialto Theater, Rialto Theatre, Limassol, 3603, Cyprus
The 22nd Cyprus Contemporary Dance Festival begins with a choreography by Arno Schuitemaker that has been presented at renowned theatres and performing arts festivals in over 15 countries across Europe.
With seeming casualness, If You Could See Me Now sets a chilled-out club dance into one dizzying wave-like motion. The three performers see no limits to what they take out of their bodies, propelled by the rhythm of the beat.
Progressing continuously, the vibes accumulate and electrify, drawing the audience deeper and deeper into the performance. At maximal exertion and sweaty physicality, the incessant movement flow audaciously redefines itself as luminous and versatile impressions. The performance space dilates and shifts. Time gets chopped up then reshapes.
From ecstasy to turmoil, from build-up to its dismantling, If You Could See Me Now challenges expectations and appeals for another look, to look again, and it transforms an exact spontaneity into a hypnotic sensory experience.
Arno Schuitemaker was born in 1976 in The Netherlands and is based in Amsterdam. His creations include EXIT (2009), TIDE (2011), The Fifteen Project | DUET (2012), I is an Other (2014), Together_till the end (2015) and the trilogy for three performers While We Strive (2015), I will wait for you (2016) and If You Could See Me Now (2017). His most recent and largest scale work to date, The Way You Sound Tonight, premiered at the Holland Festival in June 2018.
Compelling, mesmeric, intense — he creates works one has to experience. Using ongoing, perpetual movement, his perception-based performances become immersive and transformative encounters that speak about life and the time we live in. In collaboration with various extraordinary performers, composers and lighting designers each work shapes its own identity and perspective. Often characterized as interdisciplinary, they transcend dance and push its boundaries.
The performances have been presented at renowned theatres and contemporary performing arts festivals in over 15 countries across Europe and beyond. In Theatermaker magazine, both The Way You Sound Tonight and I will wait for you were selected in the critics’ lists featuring among the best performances of the season. Tanz magazine selected him as one of the most promising choreographers in their yearbook 2017 and Dance Europe characterized him as “one of the leading dance makers in The Netherlands.” He is a winner of the Dioraphte Encouragement Award and of the 2nd Jury Prize at [re]connaissance 2016.
If You Could See Me Now is a production by SHARP/ArnoSchuitemaker in co-production with HELLERAU – Europäisches Zentrum der Künste (Dresden, Germany), O Espaço Do Tempo – Associação Cultura (Montemor-o-Novo, Portugal), CND Centre National de la Danse (Pantin, France), KLAP Maison pour la Danse (Marseille, France) and Tafelhalle im KunstKulturQuartier (Nuremberg, Germany). The performance is created with contributions by Performing Arts Fund NL, Fonds 21, VSBfonds and Prins Bernhard Cultuurfonds.
