“The History of Alexander the Great”
Production based on the life of Alexander the Great
Jointly staged by the NTNG and the Regional Municipal Theatre of Kavala
An encounter with Alexander the Great, the best-known unknown Universal Figure in world history. Based on the popular folk tales which provide a legendary account of the Macedonian’s life, feats and journeys conceived in the popular imagination centuries after his death, as well as on the detective work of two ancient historians, Arrian and Plutarch, this production brings history writing together with myth, legends, laments and songs of glories past.
