“The next-to-last Monikin”- A monologue with no beginning and no ending by Paris Takopoulos

(on the occasion of the sessions that will take place in Wednesdays of November & December at the MCF – “Wednesdays with Paris Takopoulos”)

“Monikin is a young guy, approximately 4000 years old, dressed in blue white pyjamas, or with inky tuxedo, with a face bearing traces of Pan-Hellenic regeneration”.

It is a comic-tragic monologue of a suicidal character, with his own self as well as other persons, with Becket and Ionesco references, who refers to mocks the Greek politics, the social and spiritual reality. Nikos Kalamo has already presented this monologue at the theatre of Giorgos Armenis, at the Edinburgh Festival, at the International London Festival as well as in Aegina and in Athens, with exceptional critiques.
