The beloved actor Orfeas Augustidis talked about his family and about the things he has revised after the birth of his son, while he spoke with the most tender words about his wife Georgia, speaking on “Enopios Enopio” with Nikos Hatzinikolaos, in the evening of Thursday 1/02/2024
«I reviewed everything. I am faced with that confrontation of that moment when I held the first one in my hands that told me that now everything is changing”, he initially said about the emotions caused by the birth of his son. And he continued:The first moment I saw him I said “who is he?” How is it possible?” There’s that first moment where you have no idea who he is.”
«I give time to family and catch up on sleep if needed. Especially the first year that Achilles had come into our lives and there were three of us already. In fact, I allowed stress to visit me for the first time because I wanted to find more time in the day. I started to tighten up because I wanted, not only to change diapers, to see him and be there to help Georgia. I find time, this year I have different limits than last year and the year before, so I see him even more and we spend every day a little time together. Our wake-ups, in the afternoon before I go to the theater, when he lies down, I say “good night” to him and then I go to the theater, the weekends are his again. As the years go by, I will adapt myself around the needs of the family».
“Georgia is what I want to be again”
«Georgia is now most of the legs of the table, where I always wanted to be the table and all the legs to be mine. In other words, I wanted no one to be able to take something that I didn’t have control over. I have already generously given her a piece of it because I want to be afraid that she won’t get hurt” Orfeas Augustidis also added.
“We met through our need to be carefree, to play, to talk. I saw in her eyes a person who vibrates and is moved by Art, even if it is outside of our own work. Georgia has what I want to be again. It has a childlike, unpretentious innocence that I try to be in that area in order to be like that on stage and I want that to be my goal. Georgia shows me the way. So these are things that were there and luckily I had the nerve to see them. At the same time it comforts me, makes me laugh, I like to do what I used to do by myself but now I only want to do it with Georgia and that’s perfect”.
