Antonio or The Message, 1972

4 male – 4 female

Loula Anagnostaki

The play takes place under the shadow of a totalitarian regime. Aliki, who has an intellectually disabled son, Antonio, hides a group of runaways at her house, in an attempt to save them from the authorities. Some of them are friends with her son. Coincidentally, their leader’s name is also Antonio. Eleni, Aliki’s house guest, will take advantage of this synonymy in order to deceive the policemen and help Aliki’s son escape.
