The play “The Puss in Boots & the Arrogant Wizard”, based on the classic tale by Giovanni Francesco Straparola, is presented by the children’s theater stage of the Artistic Association “The Healers”, for the 4th artistic season.
The work has been presented in many versions, the best known of which are those of Charles Perrault, in France and the Brothers Grimm, in Germany. In the “Incurables” version, the humanized – in the form of “Puss in Shoes” – wisdom and intelligence of the poor miller manages to overcome the terror and arrogance of the Magus Arrogando. As a catalyst, there is also the power of true love between the miller’s son, Tristano and Princess Melissanthi, as well as between “Puss in the Shoes” and his Psipsinella!
The text and direction are by Dimitris Pappas, as well as the original music of the work, which will be performed live on stage. The sets and costumes have been edited by Angeliki Koutsothanasis.
