The Sapling by Pantelis Horn
EXPERIMENTAL STAGE (-1)REX THEATER - KATINA PAXINOU STAGE
n Athens between the wars, within the narrow confines of a paved
courtyard, Toula, the young ΅sapling’ of the title, falls in love for
the first time with the unemployed Yangos.But what will Toula do when
the young man betrays her for the sake of Eva, who has the connections
to help him secure a better future for himself? How much strength can
love have in the face of poverty and how can love prevailwhen social
mechanisms ascribe a monetary value to it? Shortly after the First World
War, at a time of great social upheaval and the crisis of values that
would lead Greece into the Asia Minor catastrophe, Pantelis Horn
transformed the traditional form of a study of manners into a
contemporary folktale whose symbolism is still capable of moving
audiences and making them think, despite the distance in time that
separates us from the writer.
