On Sunday, December 1st, 2024, on the show “Greeks Around the World – Greece in Denmark” at 10:00 am Athens time, Elina Stamatatou presents a tribute to the theatrical group of the Greek Community of Denmark.
The theatrical group of the Greek Community of Denmark (GCD) was founded in 2023 through an initiative by the Community’s Board of Directors. In February 2024, it staged its first production, “In Times of War”, a musical-theatrical protest that was warmly received. Since then, it has been actively organizing workshops, open presentations, and preparing its second production, scheduled for May 2025.
The group offers Greeks in Denmark the opportunity to come together and collaborate creatively through theater and its techniques.
