SET DESIGN FOR THE 'MONSTROUS MASTERPIECE'. ATHENS & EPIDAURUS FESTIVAL.
SMALL ANCIENT THEATRE OF EPIDAURUS, 2009.
Based on Yannis Ritsos' surreal autobiographical poem 'The Monstrous Masterpiece' written in 1977. Other works of the internationally renowned, award winning  poet, were also used to compose a retrospective of his life. The small theater of ancient Epidaurus served as the perfect setting to the nostalgic ambient of his poetry: ancient marbles, the sea, the olive and orange groves, a small stone farmhouse as a backdrop. The stage was filled with cinematography and photography equipment as if a documentary on Ritsos was about to be filmed on the spot. Αwarded the 'Karolos Koun' prize for Original Greek Play. Photography:  1, 6, 8, 9, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 18 by Nikos Gargerakis, 2, 3, 4, 5, 11, 12 by  Michalis Dalanikas and 7, 17 by Nikos Nikolopoulos.
