"Stella with the Red Gloves" of Iakovos Kampanellis

Central Stage of THOC - Nicosia from 20.01.18 until 18.03.18

The Central Stage of THOC presents the play "Stella with the Red Gloves" of Iakovos Kampanellis.

Created with materials that do not fit with the customs and perceptions of her era, Stella, like a wild animal that can not be imprisoned, surrenders to extreme passion without inhibitions and chooses a rupture with a painful end instead of the fake happiness of an indifferent cohabitation...

Directed by Konstantinos Arvanitakis (in Greek)

Iakovos Kambanellis (December 2, 1921 – March 29, 2011) was a Greek poet, playwright, screenwriter, lyricist, and novelist.[1] Born 2 December 1922 in Hora in the island of Naxos, Kambanellis appears as one of the most prominent Greek artists of the 20th century.
