Thousand and One Nights

Storytelling / Shadow Theatre / Traditional Music

The group "Οκλαδόν" presents the show: "Thousand and One Nights'. The Art of Storytelling meets the Art of the Shadow Theatre and alongside with the Art of Music which accompanies the stories with live musical compositions brings to you a mystic show.

By Narrating the story of Caliph Sachriar, who lost his confidence towards people, and Sachrazat, who managed to soften his heart by telling him stories, the show highlights the personal struggle of every human with their demons, which isolate and makes them suspicious. Perhaps a process of sharing and through an emotional interaction one can recognize the bright aspects within themselves and also realize that goodness can exist within the others.

Members: Veronika Aloneftou (music editor, dulcimer & percussion), Marina Katsari (narration), Theodore Kostidakis (shadow theater), Katerina Pantela (artistic director).
* Giannis Koutis (music editor, oud, saz & percussion) with great pleasure will participate in the Kastelliotissa Hall shows.

The group "Οκλαδόν" is a collaboration between "Παραμυθίες” (a Storytelling group who narrates folk and traditional stories with musical accompaniment) and "ΚαρακιόΖΕΙΣ παντού!" (that Performs Shadow Theatre and gives Shadow workshops).
