The Greek Visiting Mr. Green
was an overwhelming success. It
swept every category of the Time
Out Athens Theatre Awards. It
played for two full seasons in
Athens and several months in
Thessaloniki. Mr. Green was
played by Giorgos
Michalakopoulos, who also
directed. Ross Gardiner was
Gerasimos Skiadaresis. They
are both well-known theatre and
film actors.
When you arrived at the theatre,
there was a saxophone player
outside on the street playing.
When the play began, the lights
went down and that same sax
player walked across the stage on
the street above Mr. Green's
basement apartment playing a
mournful tune.
The Greek translation was done by
prominent translator Erricos
Belies, and will soon be published
by Heridanos Publications in
anticipation of a revival of the play.
The title in Greece translates as
"Every Thursday, Mr. Green".
