"PROMETHEUS BOUND"

A Melodic Opera composed by Panagiotis Karousos
📣Première: Wednesday 29th May
THEATRE OF THE NO, the first English-speaking theater in Athens, presents the Opera "Prometheus Bound", with music and libretto by Panagiotis Karousos.
Prometheus Bound based on the tragedy written by Aeschylus will premier on May 29th 2024 for only 10 performances, every Wednesday at 20.00, May 29th to July 31st 2024.
The melodic opera accompanies Prometheus on his journey of independence and enlightenment, and infused with romanticism and lyrical exuberance, transporting the listener into a magical mysterious world.
The myth of Prometheus, always current and instructive, brings man face to face with the dilemma of rebellion against tyrannical power in any historical era, and the destructive effect of passive attitudes. The rebellious Prometheus is the first known individual who rebelled against the authorities for the sake of the people, rebelling against the power of Zeus who was trying to exterminate the human race.
Prometheus Bound premiered in Montreal, Canada in 1994 and was performed intermittently in New York, Washington DC and Paris.
