Lysistrata vs Karagiozis
What happened when Karagiozis and his male friends heard of the female blackmail of abstinence?
Karagiozis is a shadow puppet and fictional character of Greek folklore. He is the main character of the tales narrated in the Greek shadow-puppet theatre.
Lysistrata is one of the few surviving plays written by Aristophanes. Originally performed in classical Athens in 411 BC, it is a comic account of one woman's extraordinary mission to end The Peloponnesian War. Lysistrata persuades the women of Greece to withhold sexual privileges from their husbands and lovers as a means of forcing the men to negotiate peace — a strategy, however, that inflames the battle between the sexes.
The story of Lysistrata meets Karagiozis in a hilarious theater performance that is touring Cyprus this summer.
