SUMMARY:Karagiozis the Ecologist
DESCRIPTION:This activity is only available in Greek. \n\nA brand-new comedy full of hilarious lines from Makris’ beloved Karagiozis—perfect for the whole family! In Karagiozis the Environmentalist\, Greece’s favourite barefoot shadow puppet hero faces a mysterious threat hiding in the leaves of the tree outside his shack. Anyone who walks under it ends up cursed with misfortune. The Pasha orders the tree to be cut down—but Karagiozis has other ideas. To him\, trees are sacred: they offer oxygen\, shade and beauty to the world\, and must be protected. Will he find a clever way to save the tree and banish the evil lurking in its branches?

SUMMARY:Apprenticeship Walk: 20 plus 1 Stops
DESCRIPTION:This activity is only availble in Greek. \n\nOfficially designated a historic site\, the National Garden (formerly the Royal Garden) is a calm eye in the storm of central Athens—a space of serenity surrounded by the city’s intensity\, steeped in memory and history. Among the 500 species of plants brought here from around the world under Queen Amalia’s watchful eye\, marble figures wait quietly: Dionysios Solomos\, Aristotle Valaoritis\, Jean Moréas\, Ioannis Kapodistrias and Ioannis Eynard—emblematic figures from an era of visionary leadership in Greece. In this poetic promenade\, writer-director Thodoris Gonis invites audiences to follow the traces of these permanent Garden residents—poets\, politicians\, botanists and engineers—through the documents\, letters and texts that shaped the garden’s story. At its heart is the 20-year-old queen who once dreamt it into being. \n\nConcept & Direction: Thodoris Gonis\n\nDramaturgy: Thodoris Gonis\, Eleni Stroulia\n\nCostumes: Matina Megkla \n\nCast: Eleni Ouzounidou\, Thanasis Dimou\, Roxani Karfi\, Christina Chalkia \n\nMusicians: Paris Kimionis\, Danai Tsironi
