Περιγραφή στα Αγγλικά
Mikres Tapeinoseis is a musical-theater composition at Baumstrasse in Botanikos, running Mondays and Tuesdays in March 2026. Two performers share a second-floor stage — piano behind, double bass to the side — and the first thing you notice is how close you are to the work.
Panos Papadopoulos conceived the piece from his grandfather Nikos's diary — daily entries written with a precision that turned ordinary moments into small literature. Papadopoulos graduated from the Drama School of the National Theatre and has worked with directors including Nikos Karathanasis and Dimitris Karantzas. In 2025, his performance as Vladimir in Waiting for Godot drew extended attention. Nefeli Fasouli, his collaborator and co-director, is a singer-songwriter whose first album carried lyrics by Fivos Delivorias. She brings a voice trained across entechno, jazz, and folk — the kind of range that shifts register between scenes without the audience noticing the seam. Lena Kitsopoulou contributes additional text, sharpening the edges where the grandfather's gentle observations meet the present.
The crowd at Baumstrasse runs to people who follow specific artists between venues: listeners who know Fasouli from her concert circuit, theatergoers who tracked Papadopoulos through his work at the Athens Festival and Stegi, and friends-of-friends who arrive because the venue name travels by word of mouth rather than poster campaigns.
Baumstrasse — also called Dromos me Dentra, Street with Trees — sits on the second floor at Servion 8 in Botanikos. The room is intimate enough that the piano and double bass played live by Konstantinos Christodoulou and Kimon Karoutsos fill the space without amplification. The seventy-five-minute runtime moves through interconnected vignettes: a couple discussing finances in a kitchen, a first love arriving too early, a loss arriving too late, the distance between what people mean and what they manage to say.
If you want spectacle and production design, this is not that room. But if you want to watch two performers build an entire world from a grandfather's notebook, a piano, and the kinds of silence that sit between people who have run out of ways to say what they need to, this is the production.
Baumstrasse is a ten-minute walk from Metaxourgeio metro. Curtain at 21:00, Mondays and Tuesdays. Tickets are eighteen euros, sixteen for students, unemployed, and over sixty-five, available through dentra.gr. The room is small — book ahead.
A grandfather's diary, written decades ago, performed by two artists young enough to be his grandchildren. The distance between those generations is exactly what the show is about.
