Z – Minas Borboudakis – Programme – Season 2017/18
€3.00
Α new opera commissioned by the Alternative Stage is from the renowned Greek composer Minas Borboudakis.
We are starting with the novel Z by Vassilis Vassilikos which was a real hit in its day, and found international acclaim thanks to countless translations, and its adaptation for cinema by Costa Gavras. One of the most important moments in Greece’s modern political history, which marked the decline into a long period of political turmoil that eventually culminated in the 7-year military regime period, was the murder of EDA (Left wing party) parliamentary deputy, Grigoris Lambrakis; that story now enters the opera repertoire with the dual aim of rekindling the public’s relationship with opera, and opera’s relationship with issues still unresolved in society’s collective conscience.
