Arzoumanidis among the Sponsors of “60 Lepta”
In 2018, Arzoumanidis Classic Furniture was included among the sponsors of “60 Lepta”, presented at Sofouli Theatre in Thessaloniki.
The play, written and directed by Anthimos Katirtzoglou, premiered on 2 March 2018. The black comedy brought six people to the stage who knew one another online and met at a party.
The listing of Arzoumanidis among the sponsors records another collaboration with theatre in our city. We present it as part of our archive of cultural activities we have supported.
60 Lepta: six characters in an unexpected encounter
The archived production presentation on ThessalonikiGuide describes a group of people from different backgrounds. A pharmacist, a politician, a fashion designer, a model, a psychologist and a theatre producer meet at a birthday party. Until then, they had known one another online, adding uncertainty to their first meeting.
A game becomes the occasion for their behaviour to be tested. As time runs short, different sides of the characters emerge. “60 Lepta” thus combined black comedy with mystery and questions about how well we know the people with whom we communicate.
The people behind the production
The listed cast included Tina Leonara, Anthimos Katirtzoglou, Eirini Thermasoni, Dimitris Elias, Dimitris Danampasis and Smaragda Tzouma. Athina Batsila was responsible for the sets and costumes, while Lefteris Papastavrou composed the original music. Sound and lighting were by Anestis Ataktidis.
Recording the creative team allows a fuller picture of the production to be preserved. A theatrical performance results from the meeting of many different disciplines: writing, acting, stage setting, music and technical support work together to present the story to the audience.
