The historic character who bridged generations and entire cultures. From India to Turkey, and from there to Greece in the early 1800s!
The program “Time in Greece” with Nikolas Angelidis takes us back to Nafplio in 1841, where Karagiozis made his first recorded appearance.
Together, we learn about the myths, the path, and the contribution of Karagiozis to our tradition. Overcoming crises and trials, Karagiozis, Hadjiavatis, Kollitiri, Barba-Giorgos, Nionios, Stavrakas, Veligekas, Aglaia and their company rightfully won their place in the history of our cultural heritage.
The program also includes rare recordings that take us back to 1910!
