A few words about Giannis Xanthoulis:
Giannis Xanthoulis was born in 1947 in Alexandroupoli. His parents were
refugees of eastern Thraki. He studied journalism and design as well as
theatre costumes and wrote theatre and prose. He illustrated
children’s books and in 1982 he started to write ‘Ta Savvatiatika’ in
the ‘Eleutherotypia’ newspaper. His most important children theatrical
plays are: "A summer-summer", "Planet Four", "Go up in the roof to eat
the cloud", "A crazy crazy
block of flats" and "Drum, trumpet and red sugared almond".
"The wizard with the colours"
The wizard Skordaleuros animates some stories from the history of
animals which want to take the authority. It is a love story between a
dog and a cat. In this story a taste’s competition happens and the
children have to decide which of them is the most tasty (chocolate,
sugar candy, ice-cream and arpa-colas). The final slogan is:
"All
of us can become wizards ..."
