Flashback: When "Daimones" returned to the stage 22 years later!!!
Exactly a year ago today, on the 23rd of March in a packed Pallas Theatre the stage was lit and Rozana’s “I love you” resounded 22 years later stronger than ever before through the entire auditorium!
The return of “Daimones” became finally a reality! Anna Vissi, Evelina Papoulia, Panayiotis Petrakis and Nikolaos Karagkiaouris led a cast of incredibly talented performers. Nikos Karvelas’ work to a libretto by Stavros Sideras was directed this time by Yiannis Kakleas and the result was breathtaking.
At the end of the first performance the cast received a standing ovation by an ecstatic audience... “Daimones” had won the bet! This was repeated not only at the show’s official Opening Night on the 27th of March 2013, but also at all the performances that followed!
Let’s have a flashback to the highlights of those two days...
First Performance 23-3-2013...
1) The elevation special effect keeps the startled audience on the edge of their seats!
2) The cast takes the first bow and the applause lasts more than 10 minutes!
3) Anna’s touching tweet at 4 (!) a.m...
The Official Opening Night 27-3-2013...
1) Mrs Angeliki’s, Nicos Karvelas’ mother, statement to the press... «Yes, Sofia is expecting». The rumors are confirmed, Anna Vissi is going to be a grandmother!!!
2) Anna’s sweet embarrassed reply to how she feels now that she’s going to be the Absolute grandmother!
3) A star-studded premiere!!! Katy Garbi, Natalia Germanou, Maria Korinthiou, Fotis Sergoulopoulos, Makis Triantafyllopoulos, Demy and Anna’s close friend Patricia Field only to name a few of the celebrities who attended!!!
“Daimones” succeeded because it was a show made with love and passion. It broke every box office record, as it sold over 80.000 tickets!!! “Daimones” moved us, charmed us, and definitely filled our minds with thoughts...obsessive thoughts! Once more, “Daimones” made history...
