The Theater of Crete presents the play “Ta Vedouzopotira” (cups used for therapeutic purposes in order to treat influenza and cold) by Roula Orphanoudaki.

The play is a hilarious Cretan ethography that presents the stories of pure, honest and traditional Cretans, in a village in Crete. Through their characters, they impart the folkway of this blessed place. Laughter and emotion are constantly alternated with each other, as it happens in our real and daily life. The play is embellished with traditional music that emphasizes even more the culture of our country.

Theatrical modification and adaptation: Manos Zeibekis
Direction: Manos Zeibekis
Scenes and costumes: Anna Hiletzaki

The performance is in Greek and the admission is free.
