Tango – Rebetiko: Parallel paths
In this context, original orchestrations present Tango and Rebetiko as primarily marginal music genres, sometimes outlawed or censored. They are also seen as expressions of the people’s struggle in the challenging lives of immigrants and refugees in the ports of Piraeus and Buenos Aires during the first half of the 20th century. The parallel paths of Tango and Rebetiko are explored through 8 thematic threads: The city, daily survival, men, women, love, passion, utopia, death, and freedom.

A guitar, a trapeze, a woman and a man are challenged to find a way to communicate as they slowly lose their senses one by one.

Music: Dimitris Bakopoulos
Performance: Galini Benetatou
Shall I take off my clothes?
A work in progress performance, an improvisational monologue, influenced by Charles Perrault’s Little Red Riding Hood, with a focus on femininity.
How does a woman perceive love, rejection, lack of communication, the search for herself? How does she enter the creases of society and try to escape them? What happens when she chooses to follow what society demands of her? Or does she not choose to?
Directed by: Angeliki Nikolaidou
On Stage: Irini Bazani
Red Hood
Composition of scenes with constant role changes inspired by Charles Perrault’s “Little Red Riding Hood”.
“Half-eaten, in the early hours of the morning, a little girl was found in her grandmother’s cottage in the woods. The marks on the unfortunate girl’s body indicate an attack by a carnivorous mammal, according to investigations by the relevant authorities in cooperation with the authorities.”
The next day in this dark tale, where no lumberjack ever appears.
Directed by: Konstantinos Metsos
Actors on stage: Hara Kantareli, Chrysi Varvara
Una Tostada por dos
A contemporary dance duet enriched with elements of theater and Play-Fight, exploring the concept of personal freedom.

When do personal limitations and social pressures become opportunities for connection?
A journey in search of carefree living.

“The Visionaries”
Those who refuse to have borders are those whose work truly intervenes with, and shapes, history. The Impressionist painters revolutionised art, not only with their way of painting, but also with their technical background. They refused any restrictions on subject matter, sharpness of lines and colours and captured movement with light, even with small wavy brushstrokes. This is the dreaminess of a bygone, but always timeless era that combines romanticism, lyricism and unconventionality.
Although particular characters, Impressionist artists were highly social and very often participated in political circles.
What would transnational diplomacy look like if it included institutional dialogue between representatives of artistic movements?
Would it have been possible to avoid war if visionary creators, such as the impressionist painters and musicians of the early 20th century, had been in the place of the political opponents?
The exhibition of visual arts and archive photography organised in the framework of the “Little Paris of Athens 2024” entitled “Visionaries” includes archive photographs of artists (painters, musicians, etc. ) and politicians of the Belle Époque and the interwar period, works by great Impressionist painters juxtaposed with works by our visual artists, who are participating through an open invitation of the festival, as well as the “public dialogue” on “Impressionism and diplomacy”.
Street art – murals
From 2013 until today, the “Little Paris of Athens” festival has brought to the city major works of street painting by important Greek and foreign artists, enriching our public cultural heritage.
In 2024 the festival, true to its principles and objectives, will again host important artists for the creation of new public murals.
