By Alpha Square, a staged reading of the imagined dialogues between Leonardo da Vinci and Lady Gioconda of the Jules Tasca’s play. Directed by Andreas Araouzos.
Cast: Christina Marouchou and Andreas Araouzos.
In the framework of the programme FlashArt@Rialto 2022

She is childish. She is mature beyond her years. She is feisty. She is docile. She is clever. She is naive. She is a dozen other contradictions. She is the famous Mona Lisa. And her painter, Leonardo, has the obligation to capture the facets of this young woman. A speculation drama about the three years it took the famous Da Vinci to paint his globally known masterwork. She wants to be immortalised by the most famous painter in Europe. He has personal reasons to keep the portrait to himself rather than release it to Francesco Gioconda, who commissioned his wife’s portrait. Leonardo and Lisa argue and debate, but they also bare their souls to each other. Artist and subject develop together to acquire a sense of supreme camaraderie. The performance is In English

The Cyprus Symphony Orchestra gladly welcomes on stage the exceptional Cypriot pianist Manolis Neophytou and the acclaimed maestro Leonardo Catalanotto to perform works by two highly prominent composers of Russian musical romanticism: Sergei Rachmaninov and Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky.

Rachmaninov’s Piano concerto no. 2, premiered in 1901 with the composer on the piano, is one of the most technically challenging concertos ever written. The work abounds in affective ideas and tender charm, with the piano assertively taking the role of a second orchestra.

Tchaikovsky’s crowning Symphony no. 6, premiered in 1893 under the composer’s baton, falls nothing short of passionate emotional extremes, from somber moods to light and graceful moments, hence its title “passionate”.

Sergei Rachmaninov: Piano concerto no. 2 in C minor, op. 18

«Παιδικά τραγούδια – μεγάλα όνειρα»
Από την Παιδική Χορωδία της «Διάστασης» και τον Παντελή Θαλασσινό

Τα τελευταία δύο χρόνια τα παιδιά έχουν ταλαιπωρηθεί πιο πολύ από όλους μας με το ξέσπασμα την πανδημίας, τον εγκλεισμό, την αποχή από το σχολείο και από κάθε είδους κοινωνική εκδήλωση.
Με την ελπίδα ότι σιγά σιγά τα προβλήματα θα κοπάσουν εντελώς, η «Διάσταση» προετοίμασε και παρουσιάζει στο τέλος του Απρίλη, μια παράσταση με θέμα την επιστροφή στην παιδικότητα, τη χαρά, την απόλαυση της ζωής. Τραγούδια από το πλούσιο ελληνικό ρεπερτόριο γεμάτα ποίηση και φως θα πάρουν μια νέα υπόσταση με μια φρέσκια, αυθεντική απόδοση από τα παιδιά της «Διάστασης» και τον αγαπημένο μας Παντελή Θαλασσινό ο οποίος έχει επιμεληθεί του προγράμματος με την συνεργασία των διδασκάλων της Παιδικής χορωδίας, Χριστίνα και Δήμητρα Πισσουρίου , διασφαλίζοντας έτσι τόσο την ποιότητα όσο και το ξεχωριστό ενδιαφέρον που παρουσιάζει η παράσταση.
Η παράσταση βέβαια, απευθύνεται όχι μόνο σε παιδιά αλλά και σε ενήλικες με «μεγάλα όνειρα».
Την Παιδική Χορωδία συνοδεύει μικρή ορχήστρα υπό την επιμέλεια του Αντώνη Πολυκάρπου ο οποίος θα είναι και στο πιάνο και έχει επιμεληθεί και τις ενορχηστρώσεις
Οι παραστάσεις θα δοθούν στις 29 και 30 Απριλίου στις 20:00 μ.μ και την 1η Μαΐου στις 17:00 και στις 20:00 μ.μ. στο οίκημα της « Διάστασης», στη Πλατεία του Παλιού Λιμανιού στην Αίθουσα ΠΛΕΥΣΙΣ.

What the Butler Saw
2022-05-04 - 2022-05-21
What the Butler Saw, is an intensely funny farce set in the sexually charged private clinic of psychiatrist, Dr. Prentice.
As the play opens, Dr. Prentice is interviewing the young, attractive Geraldine Barclay to be his new secretary. During her brief interview, she reveals that she has recently lost her adoptive mother after a gas explosion, and does not know the true parentage of either of her parents. Unbeknownst to Geraldine, Dr. Prentice is also doing his best to seduce her but his efforts are thwarted throughout the course of the day.
As Geraldine undresses behind a screen (as part of Dr. Prentice’s “examination”), the psychiatrist’s wife, Mrs. Prentice, interrupts them, dressed only in her underwear. While Geraldine is concealed, it emerges that Mrs. Prentice is being blackmailed by a young bellboy named Nicholas Beckett, after spending the night with him at the Station Hotel.
To avoid scandal, she promises the post of secretary to Beckett, unaware that her husband is interviewing Geraldine for the same position. Mayhem ensues as Geraldine, Beckett, and a local policeman, Sergeant Match, all disrobe and swap clothes as Dr. Prentice attempts to keep some sort of order in his chaotic clinic. Dr. Rance, a crazed psychiatrist, comes to the clinic in the midst of the chaos to carry out a government inspection. As he diagnoses madness all round, and subsequently tries to section most of those present, the truth about Geraldine and Nicholas Beckett’s parentage is revealed.
Both Geraldine and Nicholas reveal halves of a locket that was given to them by their birth mother before she abandoned them. Mrs. Prentice recognizes the locket, revealing that she was seduced in a closet at the Station Hotel, while working as a chambermaid shortly before her marriage. Dr. Prentice then reveals that the locket was originally his and given to the woman whom he also seduced before his marriage. Realizing their pre-marital liaison, the couple are amazed, yet strangely delighted, by their incestuous behavior towards their newly discovered children. The strange group leave the clinic, bedraggled and disrobed, to face the world together.

Welcome Maestro Neuhold - CYSO
2022-05-05 20:30 - 23:59
The Cyprus Symphony Orchestra welcomes on stage its new Artistic Director and Conductor, Gϋnter Neuhold! In their first concert together, they will present two masterful symphonies: Mozart’s Symphony no. 35, known as the Haffner Symphony, and Tchaikovsky’s 5th.

The Haffner Symphony, composed in 1782, typifies the late symphonies of Mozart in their ambitious dimensions, greater demands on performers, harmonic and contrapuntal complexity, and final movements that are climactic rather than light. One is struck by the wide range of emotions and styles permeating the score.

Tchaikovsky’s Fifth Symphonywas written in 1888, at a time when his international reputation had already grown considerably. A central motive representing Fate runs through the entire symphony, and appears in the major key in the long coda of the finale, thus evoking a triumphant mood.

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart: Symphony no. 35 in D major, K. 385,“Haffner”
Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky: Symphony no. 5 in E minor, op. 64

Conductor: Gϋnter Neuhold

This collaboration is made even more special by a programme of pure romanticism featuring works by Franz Liszt, Pablo de Sarasate and Maurice Ravel in which emotions and passion are given full reign, and a piece by Cypriot composer George Kolias for good measure.

Pafos: Sunday 29 May 2022, Markideio Municipal Theatre, 16:00

The Cyprus Symphony Orchestra collaborates with music pedagogue Christina Charalambidou to present the symphonic version of the musical story “Kiki in America” in five unique performances! The protagonist of the story is an adventurous chicklet named Kiki, which will come to life through storytelling, projected illustrations and live music.

Kiki makes a journey in America which starts from San Francisco, passes through the Grand Canyon and ends in New York City – the “Big Apple”! During her trip, Kiki will discover music by American and European composers inspired by the natural beauty of America, melodies of Native Americans and Afroamericans, Latin music and Jazz. Moreover, the work “New York Suite” by Cypriot composer Tasos Stylianou that has been specially commissioned for this programme by the CySO Foundation, will embody the sounds of New York!

These family – educational concerts include interactive musical activities between the musicians, the music educators and the children. A brief workshop will follow where the children will have the opportunity to try some of the instruments of the orchestra.

The main goal of the concerts and workshops is to promote musical exposition and education of children from the early years of their life.Specifically, they aim to introduce children to classical and jazz music, the instruments of the symphony orchestra and cultivate their musicality in creative ways. The children will have the opportunity to experience music through emotional expression, movement, language, the use of imagination and creation of their own drawings. The philosophy of the educational family concerts derives from the idea that “Creative adults come from creative children, and only a creative society can change the world creatively” (E. Barkin).

Our artists:

Nicoletta Papamichael

Nicoletta Papamichael was born in Larnaca in 1977. She studied Fine Arts at the Florence Academy of Fine Arts, where from she graduated with distinction in 2001.

In 2002 she entered in the Complutense University of Madrid, and followed a Masters course titled Theory and Practice of the Contemporary Art.

In 2006 she was accepted at a PhD programme of the same University under the general title “drawing and engraving, teaching and creativity”. She has successfully finished its first part with her thesis: “Self portrait: the Art to share Intimacy”.

Terms as Intimacy, Private and Personal as well as their role in the artistic creation, are questions that preoccupy her both in her artistic and theoretical research.

Nicoletta has presented three solo exhibitions in Cyprus and two solo presentations in Madrid and has presented her work in Florence, Madrid, Barcelona and Berlin, as well as in many group exhibitions in Cyprus.

Chloe Finn

Chloe Finn was born in Thessaloniki in 1989 to a Greek mother and an Australian father. She studied Product Design in Central St.Martins, London and has worked in a variety of arts and crafts. Her works are on-location illustrations, from real places she meets in her travels, cities she visits and houses and interiors that inspire her. Her passion for capturing landscapes led her to collaborate with various groups, environmental and cultural organizations, creating images, graphics and illustrating children’s books.

She has been living and working in Cyprus for the last four years, dealing with artist groups, workshops and social projects.

Michalis Charalambous, born in 1987, is a Visual Artist. Michalis’ practice includes ceramic, filmmaking and painting. He graduated from the Fine Arts School of Visual and Applied Arts of the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in 2013. His Master dissertation (MA, Open University of Cyprus, 2019) focuses on the activity and influence of independent Artist-Run spaces in Cyprus. He has participated in national and international festivals and exhibitions like the 16th Venice Biennale of Architecture (Cyprus Pavilion, 2018), the 6th Thessaloniki Biennale of Contemporary Art (2017, “Imagined Homes”), the special screening program at 58th Thessaloniki International film Festival, the Athens Ethnographic Film Festival (2016) with the documentary “Anamones” and the PAFOS 2017 group exhibition “Weaving Europe”. Finally, he has been hosted in artist residencies in Lecce/ Puglia, IT (BJCEM, “LandXcape”) and in Barcelona, SP (Can Serrat).

Through his practice, Michalis Charalambous explores the boundaries between space, body, object and identity in our time using digital technology and traditional media. He examines the contradictory terms of analogue and digital, physical and virtual environment, material and intangible. His work aims to interpret a non-specific context defined by symbolism. It suggests different ways of touching a vessel to interpret the interaction between the meta-human, the object and the space.

His artistic practice takes references from ancient vessels dating to different historical cultures which, blended with poetic narratives, sculptural practices and 3d modeling lead to new, hybrid forms. At the same time, Michalis makes use of the method of “still life photography” as a mean of alternative interpretation and approach concerning the context of an image. In this context, photography operates as a medium associated to cultural and political significances rather than an ordinary scientific tool.

Μakrikostaioi and Κontogiorgides by Αlecos Sakellarios and Christos Giannakopoulos
2022-06-02 21:00 - 2022-06-18 22:30
< The Cyprus Theatre Organisation inaugurates this year’s summer theatre season with the comedy by the unsurpassed writing duo Alekos Sakellarios and Christos Giannakopoulos, which will travel all over the island to entertain and amuse the audience, while in the autumn it will continue its tour in municipalities and communities.
An old family feud haunts the lives of two ordinary people who don’t know each other; Thomas Makrykostas and Stelios Kontogiorgis. The hatred is rekindled and the two heroes come under family pressure to take on the duty of revenge. They cross paths by chance in a hotel in Athens, and thus the invisible conflict becomes visible. Will they manage to emerge unscathed from this frantic chase and write old enmity in the snow?

Beytrna
2022-06-03 20:30 - 22:00
Beytna* IOMARRAJEH| MAQAMAT
fri 20:30 (75’)

Cyprus Contemporary Dance Festival 2022 opens with an inventive performance by prominent choreographer from Lebanon, Omar Rajeh.
Four choreographers and four musicians coming from Lebanon, Japan, Palestine, Belgium, and Togo are meeting on stage over a banquet of food. They are coming from different continents, cultures, and countries. They have different artistic experiences with different backgrounds and ideas. What connects them is their profession. They talk, drink, laugh, dance, and eat together.
The simplicity of this meeting would be a starting point to a more complex choreographic and conceptual performance structure. Beytna is a simple invitation to the home of the other, health, happiness, pleasure, compassion, and friendship. It is an invitation to the artist’s profession and choreographic construction, as much as it is to the forms and situations of the past.

Concept and choreography: Omar Rajeh
Choreographed by: Koen Augustijnen, Omar Rajeh, Anani Sanouvi, Moonsuk Choi
Music Composition: Ziad Ahmadie, Youssef Hbeisch, Samir Nasr Eddine, Oussama Abdel Fattah Performed by: Koen Augustijnen, Ziad Ahmadie, May Bou Matar, Moonsuk Choi, Youssef Hbeisch, Samir Nasr Eddine, Omar Rajeh, Oussama Abdel Fattah, Anani Sanouvi
