Introduction
Right before Nikos Karathanos’ “The Birds” fly off to Chile and the biggest performance festival in Latin America, they land on the Stegi’s Main Stage for two days, in a collaboration between Greek and Brazilian actors. Come see the group Passinho Carioca from Rio, together with Nikos Karathanos, Christos Loulis, Amalia Moutousi, Stefania Goulioti, Martha Frintzila, Thanasis Alevras and other “birds.”

This performance was never just a performance. It always resembled its setting: a floating island, somewhere between a Greek beach and the Amazon, full of pines and tropical vegetation, traveling outside of place and time, beyond national borders, states and forms of government.
After its premiere at Epidaurus in 2016, “The Birds” flew to St. Ann’s Warehouse in Brooklyn, where the unprecedented happened: a Greek production was declared one of the best ten theater productions of 2018 by New York Magazine.Now, entirely revamped, accompanied by a film by Babis Makridis inspired by the performance, and preparing for the international festival circuit with an accompanying educational program in tow, the Stegi’s performance combines the Brazilian dance group Passinho Carioca, from the favelas of Rio, with Nikos Karathanos and Christos Loulis, now flanked by Amalia Moutousi, Stefania Goulioti, Thanasis Alevras and Martha Frintzila, as well as a dozen other actors, musicians, and dancers from Greece.
