Troades Review (Joanna Kris)Bottom Line: Extraordinary direction of Trojan Women by Leonidas Loizides The theatergoers had a unique experience at the Cultural Center of New York on 18th of September. Loizides directed a masterpiece that none will ever forget. He managed to transform "Trojan Women" of Euripides into a unique performance that felt as if it was written in our times, even though the script was written 2500 years ago. SIMPLE AND FLAWLESS "TROJAN WOMEN" BY LEONIDAS LOIZIDES We had the honor to host in our island, Ios, at the 13th of August the play "Trojan Women" of Euripides under the direction of Mr Leonidas Loizides. Given that in Ios we rarely host such ambitious productions, we were anticipating the event and the interest of locals was admittedly high. Especially when the music is signed by the great Mikis Theodorakis and the translation belongs to Michael Kakoyiannis, every Greek wants to be present.
Elias Tomazos, Theodoros Spyropoulos, Theodoros Laliotis, Michalis Kakoyiannis, Manolis Velivasakis, Andreas Dimitriou, Leonidas Loizides and Mikis Theodorakis embrace the world through Greek civilization
After his successful endeavour to travel with Euripides' 'Vakhes' across Europe and America and after being the receiver of outstanding reviews from both audience and critics, the awarded from New York State and American Congress director Leonidas Loizides is preparing his new theatre production, Troades of Euripides, informing Mr Daniel V. Speckhard, US ambassador in Greece, and having his support, aiming once more to bring the audience all over the world in touch with the classical Greek culture heritage.
