Dionysis Mousmoutis discusses the history of theater in Zakynthos during the 19th and 20th centuries, as recorded in two significant publications. He talks about the island’s musical and social life, as well as its popular entertainments over time, offering us rare and invaluable details of the island’s cultural past.
The show highlights important figures in Zakynthos’ history, such as Solomos, Kalvos, Lavrangas, Lagios, and others, as well as the island’s literary circles and cinemas. Special attention is given to performances on the island by notable figures in theater and cinema (like Kotopouli, Kyveli, Avlonitis, and others), as well as by newer musical groups (such as the Zakynthos Singers).
The guest also discusses contemporary Zakynthos, including the Zakynthos Public Library and its significant contributions.
