CHoROS Theatre Company – Simos Kakalas

Yet Erofili’s love led Panareton to love her so much [...] that, unbeknown to her father,

he set the preparations for their wedding in motion and slept with her. That would be the cause of great evil…”Simos Kakalas and the Choros theatre company continue to bring talent, daring and coherence to their experiments with traditional forms. Following on from Draft 1, which they took to villages around Crete, they return to Erofili, this tragic love story with anti-establishment undertones. An italian-influenced masterpiece in verse form, Erofili was written in Rethymnon circa 1595.
