Karagiozis: “Long Live Madness!” – Sunday 15/11 at Thirathen

Greek Shadow Theatre: “Long Live Madness!”

Karagiozis is back at the Thirathen Museum of Musical Instruments with a brand-new, madcap adventure: “Long Live Madness!” (Ζητώ η τρέλα!), on Sunday 15 November 2026 at 11:00, at the museum (9 Riga Fereou St., Heraklion).

Behind the screen is Giouvan, bringing Karagiozis, Hatziavatis and their friends to life with humour, music and the rhythm of Greek folk storytelling. With a ladder on their shoulders and one crazy idea after another, the two friends get into trouble that can only end in laughter. A show for young and old, keeping alive an art born to gather the whole family in front of the lit screen.

Greek Shadow Theatre now has a regular Sunday date at Thirathen, a museum dedicated to the traditional music and instruments of Crete and the Mediterranean.
