Prometheus in Athens

ON THE NIGHT OF THE PERFORMANCE HE WILL DRIVE FROM HIS HOME TO THE SUBWAY STATION “KAT”, GET ON THE GREEN LINE TO THISEIO AND WALK THE DIONYSIOU AREOPAGITOU STREET TO THE THEATRE.

 

Nikos studied informatics in a Technical Professional School (T.E.E.), but soon realised that the subject wasn't suitable for him: "I wanted to be creative, I wanted to make things with my hands and see the result immediately, that’s why I also like to paint". He works now as a carpenter and uses the AutoCad computer program on which he prepares the plans before the machine gives them shape: “I guess I’m lucky and made my hobby a profession".

Although he doesn't read ancient drama, he identifies with Prometheus, because "he never regrets for what he's done and defends his choice. That's very inspirational".
