13th International Greek Drama

1-31 July

Now in its 13th year, the ethos of the International Festival of Ancient Greek Drama shows how ancient theatre is interpreted by modern companies from all over the world.

This year, throughout July, nine companies from six countries of Europe and the Eastern Mediterranean present well-known favourites such as ‘Medea’ and ‘Antigone’ alongside lesser-known but equally riveting productions like ‘Thebaid’ and ‘Alcestis’.

The performances take place at the Ancient Odeon of Paphos, the Curium Ancient Theatre in Limassol and the Makarios III Amphitheatre in Nicosia.

The festival is presented by the Cyprus Centre of the International Theatre Institute which was founded 32 years ago. The Centre’s contribution to the Cypriot theatre community is considerable. Through visits of international playwrights, directors and scenographers, the Cypriot theatre community had the opportunity to become acquainted with the global theatrical trends and to bring these developments to local audiences.

Michael Jackson

Michael Joseph Jackson (August 29, 1958 – June 25, 2009) was an American recording artist, entertainer and businessman and apart from being known as the worldwide King of Rock n Roll he enjoyed exceptional popularity on the Island of Cyrpus.

Sadly Michael Jackson died on the 25 June and this tragic event captured the attention of the mass media and the general public across the Island of Cyprus.  Clearly Michael Jackson has many fans and followers in Cyprus and will be sorely missed.

Lord of the Dance

July 7

Michael Flatley, creator and director of this award-winning international dance phenomenon, proved his vision that hearts and minds, united through music and dance, cross all traditional boundaries. His Lord of the Dance continues to shatter box office records all over the world, leaving audiences breathless and clamoring for more.

Described by the Los Angeles Times as a "show piece extravaganza," Michael Flatley's Lord of the Dance is a magical adventure of sight and sound that transports its audience to a mythical time and place, lifting the spirits and capturing the hearts of all who experience it.

From the moment the lights go down to the last encore, audiences are spellbound by a masterfully orchestrated combination of precision dancing, state of the art lighting and pyrotechnics. The musical score leaves no soul untouched.

Based on Irish folklore, this classic tale of Good vs. Evil, expressed through the universal language of dance, has thrilled audiences worldwide and catapulted Irish dance to a new dimension and unprecedented worldwide acclaim.

As the story unfolds, the Little Spirit travels through time to help the Lord of the Dance protect his people from the challenge of Don Dorcha, the Dark Lord. As this evil dark power challenges the hero, the incredible adventure continues, drawing its audience into a mythical universe of love, danger, and desire.

In 2001, he had success with Redagain P when they remixed the Miami Vice theme; then, in 2003, Lopazz’s self-titled EP was released by Output Recordings, followed by the singles “Blood” (including a Tiefschwarz remix) and his first bona fide club hit “I Need Ya” (later re-licensed by French fashion label Colette). It’s success led to Lopazz remixing Germany’s biggest pop act Xavier Nadoo, while techno legend Sven Väth snapped up “I Need Ya” for his Sound of the Fourth Season mix CD.

Stefan’s relationship with Berlin-based Get Physical Music began when he was commissioned to remix Chelonis R. Jones’ ”Don’t Know”. The label went on to issue Lopazz’s own vocal track “Migracion”, which was subsequently remixed by Chilean superstars Luciano and Ricardo Vilallobos. Releases for Compost Black Label, Output and Lasergun followed, along with remixes for the likes of Isolee, Product 01 and Richard Bartz.

Afterwards, he also participated in the "Laiki Bank Song Contest" with the song 'I Diki Mou Istoria' written by Andreas Gerolemou and won the first prize. In 1995, he participated in the Cypriot National Final for the Eurovision Song Contest 1995 with two songs, namely "Filise Me" (written by Andreas Gerolemou) and "To Gramma" (written by Leonidas Malenis) where the former entry came in 3rd place and the latter entry landed in second place. That year Alex Panagi won the preselection with the song "Sti Fotia". Michalis started his career in Cyprus with three records that all went platinum: "Senario", "O Mihalis Hatzigiannis Traguda Doro Georgiadi" and "Epafi". He also participated in a musical production in Cyprus called "Pygmalion" in addition to also performing a number of concerts in major city tour in Cyprus titled "Mixalis Xatzigiannis, Andreas Gerolemou".

In May 1998 he represented Cyprus in the Eurovision Song Contest. He performed the song "Γένεσις" (Genesis), a composition of his own and took the 11th position.

Upon Michalis Hatzigiannis in Athens, Greece he collaborated with the composer Giorgos Hatzinasios and with poet and lyricist Michalis Bouboulis to create the CD single "Angigma Psychis" (Touch of soul) which was released in December 1998 by BMG Greece. The album contained songs to the ANT1 TV series bearing the same title, including the hit singles "Angigma Psychis" and "To Soma pou Zitas" (The body you seek). The album was certified platinum.
In 2003 he released the 3x platinum five song EP "Monos Mou" (By myself). The single "An Mou Tilefonouses" (If You'd Called) became a hit and the demand for airplay kept growing for months. The song remains one of the most popular Greek ballads of late. In the summer he toured Greece, performing sixty-three sold out shows.

He received three awards from the IFPI's annual Greek Arion Awards in 2003, followed by another four awards in 2004, including the award for Best Male Performer of the Year.

In April 2004 he released his third solo album, Akatallili Skini (Unsuitable scene), which increased his popularity in the Greek music scene. On April 30, 2004, he represented Cyprus at the official EU enlargement ceremony which took place in Warsaw to mark the accession of ten new countries into the European Union.

2nd World Music Day Festival

As you already know the 21st of June is globally celebrated as the World Music Day. Music events are being organized on this day all over the world and we want Paphos to take an active part in these celebrations. 

Based on the huge success of last’s year’s World Music Day celebrations and having in mind that our aim is to turn this Music Festival to an annual attraction to all music lovers around the island, this year Rock FM is joining forces with Asteras Collective Rights Management and the Paphos municipality in order to take the whole event to the next level. 

The result is a big music festival on the 21st of June in front of the medieval Castle in Kato Paphos. The festival will start at 05:00 in the afternoon with a variety of music from Cypriot traditional to Greek and English Pop and Rock from local bands and artists and it will finish around 24:00 with the live performance from the internationally known electro band from Greece “MIkro”. One of the main aspects of the festival is that local artists will have the chance to present their own music to the public. 

Throughout the day and during the music festival food and drink stalls will operate on the festival premises. There will also be music themed stalls such as second hand record market and merchandise shops.

With his career seemingly fading and the fate of a book hinging on a publisher's decision, Miles is depressed with himself and what he hasn't achieved. Jack is a television actor whom some recognize but not many do, as if he were a minor actor who got a taste of success. With his best friend Miles, the two embark on a road trip through California's wine country.

As they're both nearing middle age with not much to show for it, the two will explore the vineyards while ultimately searching for their identities.

Opera

Bravissimo

The performance “Bravissimo!” is dedicated to the 10th anniversary of the Novaya Opera Theatre. It is a selection of classical operatic masterpieces, representing different opera music forms: arias, duets, trios, quartets, quintets, choruses and orchestral numbers.

The protagonist of the performance is the Theatre. The scene of Part 1, which consists of Russian classical operatic numbers, is set in the Hermitage Garden in the early 20th century.

In Part 2 we leave the would-be theatrical quarters of Part 1 and “enter” the Theatre proper to listen to foreign operatic hits.This performance is an expression of our gratitude and admiration for all opera composers, to whom the Novaya Opera Theatre never stops saying “Bravissimo!”
