SUMMARY:“LYSISTRATA” by Aristophanes
DESCRIPTION:LYSISTRATA\n	by Aristophanes\n	 \n	Caught up in the maelstrom of the Peloponnesian War\, an Athenian woman chooses to use the most effective weapon at her disposal to bring the hostilities to an end. She calls a meeting of women from Greece’s cities and together they decide to go on a sex strike until the men agree to stop the war.\n	 \n	Lysistrata\, Aristophanes’ most anti-war and arguably most daring play\, which was first performed at the Lenaia festival in 411 BC\, was a final\, urgent clarion call for political action amidst the crisis that Athens had been facing since the outbreak of the Peloponnesian War.Aristophanes masterfully uses all the tried and tested tools of comedy\, most notably the sexually charged banter that provokes and challenges the audience\, essentially advocating female sensitivity and insight in opposition to the cynical and ultimately failed strategy of the men who monopolise power.\n	 \n	Director Marios Mettis illuminates the uninhibited language and highly sexual mood of the play’s characters\, working with a consummate team of creatives and actors to produce a joyous and provocative show that reimagines Aristophanes’ world through a subversive directorial eye.Christiana Artemiou takes on the title role of Lysistrata.\n	 \n	Credits\n	Translation: Kostas Tachtsis\n	Directed and adapted by: Marios Mettis\n	Set design: Alexis Vagianos\n	Costume design: Eleni Ioannou\n	Music\, Music coach\, On-stage music: Anastasia Dimitriadou (Nama Dama)\n	Choreography-Movement: Eva Kalomoiri\n	Lighting design: Georgios Koukoumas\n	Assistant to the Director: Michalis Kolokotronis\n	Assistant to the set-costume designer: Ifigenia Avraam \n	Cast: Constantinos Andronikou\, Christiana Artemiou\, Riana Athanasiou\, Grigoris Georgiou\, Mando Giannikou\, Stelios Kallistratis\, Anthi Kasinou\, Giorgos Kyriakou\, Andrea Mavrou\, Yiannis Minos\, Athina Moustaka\, Loizos Papageorgiou\, Themis Ppolou\, Eleni Sidera\, Kostas Tekkis\, Konstantinos Tsitsios\, Marios Zardavas \n	The production is not recommended for under-18s.\n	Entry to 16- and 17-year-olds will be permitted only if they are accompanied by a parent or guardian. \n\n	All performances begin at 21:00 \n	 \n	Venue: \n	●Nicosia: Amphitheatre Makarios III\n	Wednesday 21 June 2023\n	Thursday 22 June 2023 (with Greek surtitles)\n	Friday 23 June 2023 (with English and Turkish surtitles)\n	Tuesday 18 July 2023\n	Wednesday 19 July 2023 \n	●Deryneia: Municipal Amphitheatre\n	Wednesday 28 June 2023 \n	●Lemessos: Ancient Theatre of Kourion\n	Friday 7 July 2023\n	Saturday 8 July 2023 (with English and Turkish surtitles) \n	●Pafos: Ancient Odeon\n	Wednesday 12 July 2023 \n	●Larnaka: Pattichion Municipal Amphitheatre\n	Saturday 22 July 2023 (within the framework of the Larnaka Festival) \n	Name:\n	CYPRUS THEATRE ORGANISATION\n	Postal address: 9 Grigori Afxentiou Str. 1096 Lefkosia\n	Phone number: +357 22864300 \n\n	Start date/End date: 21 June 2023 – 22 July 2023 \n\n	Start time/End time:  21:00-22:40 \n\n	Entrance Price/Τicket: €17 / €8 \n\n	Social Media Channels of Event and/or of Event Organiser (e.g. Facebook\, Instagram etc.): FB ΘΟΚ/THOC   INSTA: th.o.c  \nOrganiser Contact Details \nName: CYPRUS THEATRE ORGANISATION \nTelephone:  22864300\nEmail:  info@thoc.org.cy\nPostal Address: 9 GRIGORI AFXENTIOU STR. 1096 NICOSIA
