My friend Dostoevsky
\nBy Dimitra Papadopoulou
\nWith Pavlos Loutsidis, directed by Kostas Gakis
\nWhat could a \"New Greek\" have in common with the leading
\nnovelist F. Dostoevsky? The theatrical adaptation of Demeter
\nPapadopoulou attempts to explain this peculiar correlation...
\nThe hero of the show is the man next door. \u0397
\nhis well-paid job, nice house and expensive car are the products of his
\nof well-being and the conditions for recognition as a \"successful\" member
\nof our society... Immigrants and bad neighborhoods are hurting the aesthetics
\nof his while essential accessory-confirmation of his masculine identity.. the Eve, a
\nethereal existence... All this before the crisis...
\nA worse nightmare our hero could not have lived. Victim of the economic
\ncrisis now lives in a basement in Ag. Panteleimon without a job and without the
\naccompanying his former \"status\", with all that implies. His only
\ncompany, his huge debts and a book that fell into his hands by accident. \"The
\na ridiculous dream\". Reading it makes you realize how futile and dead-end it was
\nhis life and how \"ridiculous\" can be considered whoever supports his happiness
\nto material goods and ephemeral pleasures. Still, the suffering that can be
\none feels, when confronted with the \"ridiculousness\" that once defined as
\n\"happiness\". Such a person is called upon to either redefine his life, or
\nto resign from it. Even put an end to it once and for all...
\nOne question plagues him as we watch him on stage and sympathize with
\nhis drama. \"To live or not to live?\". The answer he finally finds for himself
\nwith the help of his precious friend Dostoevsky. In the end, the immigrants did not
\nseem so repulsive, the squares acquire colour and life becomes meaningful, since
\nselfless love acts as an antidote for all losses.
\nA play about life, taken from life itself. Perhaps after the end of
\nperformance your neighbor seems less annoying, the noise of the neighborhood
\nmore bearable, the problems more easily dealt with, the obstacles not
\nand so insurmountable. Even for a little while...<\/p>\n
