Karaghiozis and the Riddles of the Vizier’s Daughter – Ο Καραγκιόζης και τα Αινίγματα της Βεζυροπούλας

A traditional shadow theatre puppet performance in Greek by Thodoris Kostidakis. While everybody tries to solve the riddles set by the Vizier’s daughter in order to earn her hand in marriage, Karaghiozis gets involved and messes everything up.

After the performance, the children will have the opportunity to participate in a workshop and create their own shadow theatre puppet.
