Pappou tells his grandchildren the story of our Heroes of the Revolution of 1821 and the struggle for Independence from Ottoman rule. Our young actors will bring our heroes to life. A delightful play depicting our history for kids and adults alike.
Written by Giorgos Giotis especially for our production, directed by Stavros Economidis, with Assistant Director Evelyn Tsavalas. Performed and produced by children from the Children’s Theatre Workshops of the Hellenic Art Theatre, assisted by the Greek Orthodox Community of NSW Greek Language School teachers.
Due to the NSW Government’s stay-at-home orders this event has been cancelled.

In 1980, after the passing of his mentor (Chrysostomos Mantouridis) Stavros Economidis took on the role of Artistic Director.
