After the successful performances of KIMOMENOS HALEPA, which were overwhelmed by the audience of Patras, the creators of the show bring to the ACT theater, for a unique performance, the Monday 19 February at 21:15, the latest work of the great comedian Neil Simon, I’LL SEE YOU IN PARADISE, which is presented for the first time in Greece (since October it has been performed at the Alcmeni Theater in Athens), directed by Alexandros Liakopoulos, with Anna Adrianou in the role of Rose and Giorgi Kontopodis in the role of Waltz.
A few words regarding the project
What can make a person, stay attached to a great love, who is no longer alive? To coexist with him… to talk with him… to consult him… to make love to him… and all this despite the strong reactions of those around him.
The protagonist of our play, Rose, has been living this exact situation for the last few years, since the day the great love of her life, Walsh, died of a stroke… while the two of them were having a barbecue in the garden. Rose’s dire financial situation forces the ghost of her dead guardian angel to enlist his last unfinished business in order for Rose to get out of this impasse.
And so here we are on a September followingnoon, just following autumn and the leaves have started to fall at our work’s seaside cottage, with Rose, Arlen’s ever-faithful sidekick, in store for the viewers and the new author. , John, who has another surprise in store for Arlene, to be under the guidance of Walsh, in order to complete the task in the remaining 12 days, until the spirit passes into the other dimension.
This strange coexistence creates many contradictions, which intensify as the play progresses, causing laughter, sour situations, misunderstandings and outbursts, until of course the moment of redemption comes for Rose, just before the touching finale.
A work regarding absolute love, which unites life with death.
Excerpts from some reviews of the show
If heaven had form, it would surely have something like this show.
Eleni Anagnostopoulou ( fractalart.gr )
The impressive direction of Alexandros Liakopoulos, which connects equally uniquely with the great performances of the 4 heroes and keeps us riveted throughout the play
Artmagazino.gr
The dialogues and misunderstandings are spartan, while the touching ending made me cry. What I have to say above is unnecessary. Run to catch up!
Captain Kounoupis ( theatro.gr )
Overall, this is a show worth seeing!
