On Saturday 3rd October, Prosopa Events presents ‘Guess who’s going to die tonight’ (Μάντεψε ποιος θα πεθάνει απόψε) for two exclusive shows which will take place on Saturday 3rd October at The Mermaid Theatre in London.

The Greek theatre play with iconic actress Katia Dandoulaki is launching the 3rd successful season with a UK première in London. The play is a gripping psychological thriller, promising a night full of mystery.

Based on Robert Thomas’s ‘Trap for the lonely man’, the play was adapted by Mihalis Reppas and Thanasis Papathanasiou and revolves around the story of a woman, who rapidly started losing her mind after her husband’s disappearance.

Being the first Greek theatre play of this kind in London, the show is set to be a unique one, suitable for all sorts of ages.

The play

‘Guess who’s going to die tonight’ is a gripping psychological thriller concerning a woman (Kathryn, played by Katia Dandoulaki) whose husband has mysteriously disappeared. Kathryn reports the disappearance to the police, and soon the police inspector (Tasos Kostis) and the chalet owner (Eleni Krita) visit her at the chalet for the investigation purposes.

The routine inspection suddenly turns into a chain of unexpected events when the man claiming to be her husband (Thanos Kalioras) suddenly enters the room! Kathryn is convinced of some sort of conspiracy around her, as the man and various witnesses confirm that he is in fact her husband, but she knows it’s not him! Can the two witnesses (Tzois Evidi & Pantelis Kanarakis) solve the mystery or not?

Kathryn increasingly believes that everyone around her aims to drive her mad for some reason… But why?! Who can guess the finale?

Panos Kiamos

Panos Kiamos

About The Singer:

Panos Kiamos (Πάνος Κιάμος) is a Greek ”laiko”/pop singer, known for his distinctive voice and onstage energy. Kiamos was born in Athens on October 4th 1975 and spent the rest of his adolescent life in the capital. In 1994, at the age of 18, he passed the entry exams for medical school. However, it was around the same time that he discovered his interest in music, leading to his decision to reject the medical school’s offer of a scholarship. He began to learn to play the guitar, and took up music theory lessons. His talents were soon discovered and he began making appearances in the major nightclubs alongside prestigious names in the Greek music scene.

In 2002, Kiamos made significant progress, with his songs ‘Alithina’ and ‘Arketa’ from the album ‘Tis Nyhtas Oniro’ became notably popular, and as a result Kiamos’ stock rose considerably. The release ‘To Yelio Sou Klei’ followed a year later; by this stage, he had become a household name and had gained a reputation for his on-stage energy and enthusiasm.

Since March 2010, he has performed at the Posidonio Music Hall, being the only singer who is able to fill the club four times every week. In April 2011, he released the album ‘Olokainourgios’ featuring the smash hit ‘Apo deutera’. Kiamos is a very popular and loved Greek singer, because of his down to earth attitude and his friendly relationship with his audience.

In January 2012, Panos completed his first North American tour which was sell-out success. He then went on that year to tour Australia and Germany. In March 2012, his song ‘Krystalla’ became an overnight success, followed up by the summer hit ‘To Aima Mou Piso’.

For the past couple of years, Panos has held the residency at Club 22 Live Stage in Athens, packing them in, night after night.

Kostas Martakis

Kostas Martakis

Kostas Martakis has just released his new official music video for the song ‘Pes To Nai’. After three intense days of shooting with Kostas Kapetanidis in the Ionian Island Zante, the result is magnificent.

The majority of the video was shot on the famous Navagio Beach (Shipwreck Beach). Kostas had an interview today in which he was asked about his new video. He jokingly mentioned that he got really upset when the director wanted him to stand closer to the edge of the cliff so they could get a breath-taking frame of Martakis over the shipwreck.

He also commented on his latest transition from pop to the more laiko style of his songs.

Although the Kostas confirmed that he is still going to perform pop song, he feels he needs to have a slight change in career path and that includes music style. When asked if he is anxious about this musical transition he responded with certainty that he is confident with his new path because he loves laiko as much as he loves pop.  ‘I can’t please everyone’ said the popular Greek singer in order to defend his decision. Though the song ‘Pes To Nai’ seems to be closer to the dance genre rather than laiko.

Music style aside, we couldn’t help but notice that Kostas, the Greek with the baby blue eyes, looks more handsome and radiant than ever in his latest music video.

Panos Kiamos has just released a new animated music video for his single, “Apo Asteri Se Asteri”. The song was already very popular on YouTube and so fans have been anticipating the video for almost a month now.

The Greek singer just finished a string of appearances in Athens and is now in Australia promoting his brand new album. His tour is expected to be very successful, since Panos has worked hard this year to create and promote his new album.

Yannis Papadakos, the director, chose a different and unique way to orchestrate his latest music video starting with a close up frame of Panos Kiamos singing and then introducing us to the singer’s animated counterpart.

The drawings are of an altered reality far away on another planet, or star, where the trees are pink and lollipops are growing from the ground and flying is a normal phenomenon.

We love animated Kiamos, but check out the full music video here and see what you think:

Vegas

Vegas

The Greek pop group Vegas performed their latest single “Apopse” last night in the semi-finals of the show ‘The voice’.

Two hours ago Vegas uploaded the new single onto their YouTube channel, making fans wonder when the music video will be available.

Melina, ZeRaw and DJ Airth, the three members of the group, have created multiple hits and dominated the Greek music industry since 2009.

The female singer of the group, who is known for her peculiar style, wore a long see-through white dress with red details, paired with long earrings and black peep-toe ankle-strap heels.

Vegas have been working very hard, reportedly rehearsing day and night as their official Facebook page reports they are now getting prepared for multiple live performances.

The creators and singers of the songs “Mi Stamatas” “Irthe I Stigmi” and “Tus Ponaei” have yet to release the official video for their new song but the fans are expecting it to be spectacular. The group has filmed high budget videos in the past; the video for the song “Akoma” was shot in the United States and included multiple scenes from the streets of New York, Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, Palm Beach and Miami.

Vegas’s modern aesthetic combined with their previous work is creating high expectations from the public but for the moment we can only enjoy the audio version of their latest song.

Here is a clip of their performance in last night’s episode of ‘The Voice’:

Naya

Naya

The Greek independent record label The Spicy Effect has uploaded the song ‘Min Akous Kanenan’ from a new upcoming artist named Naya. The greek media has reported that Naya is already a well-known dancer and some claim that she might be one of the top dancers in Greece.

The song ‘Min Akous Kanenan’ is written by Gavriil Gavriilidis and a music video will be available very soon.

Yiannis Papadakos, who has directed videos for Sakis Rouvas , Kostas Martakis and Onirama, is going to be the director for this new artist’s video.

The label that signed Despina Vandi, Thanos Petrelis, Mater Tempo, Lena Papadopoulou and Eleni Hatzidou is now promoting this new star and the YouTube comment feedback is rather enthusiastic.

Efforts from the label to provide the best songwriter and director signifies that Naya is here to stay. The singer who has been an enigmatic figure since she was introduced to the public last May, when she appeared on the red Carpet of Madwalk 2015, has now excited fans with her first audio piece.

It is known that Phoebus, the owner of The Spicy Effect label, is always trying to find new talents and Naya just might be their next big star.

The girl with the white hair and tattoos has already attracted a lot of attention on social media and while we have to wait for her to release her first music video, the song is out and ready for public ears:
