“Who discovered America?” Chris Spilioti

translation from modern greek: Ewa T. Szylerseries, scenography, costumes: Julia Mark

Cast:Hanna Chojnacka — GuestKatarzyna Anzorge

Liza and Kasia met in the sandbox. Then they quarreled, cried, animals. They hurt each other the most in the world, and yet this friendship lasted a lifetime. Kasia and Liza are each of us.

A woman — a daughter, meeting expectations or not, a woman on the verge of a nervous breakdown, a woman in love, a woman looking for a recipe for happiness, a woman professionally fulfilled but lonely, a woman unfulfilled professionally, but with her family, finally a woman — a friend. Thousands of spectators in Greece, Germany, Iceland and Portugal laugh and cry at performances according to the text of Chris Spilioti, because they find their emotions, their crises, their most important friendships there. A great Greek hit, translated into several dozen languages, played for more than twenty years throughout Europe.

Awards:Grand Prix of the 51st German Theatre Meetings in 2025 for Hanka Chojnackie-Gościniak and Katarzyna Anzorge for their socially sensitive treatment of the theme of femininity in acting creations.
