DANCE
DORA STRATOU THEATER / ATHENS
Dance Performances
The "Dora Stratou" dance group, consisting of 75 dancers, musicians, and singers, presents, from 29 May until 21 September 2025, a dance program with folkloric dances from many different regions of Greece. Each region is presented with its own authentic costumes, musical instruments, songs, and dances.
The dance program is updated every second Thursday. The duration of the traditional Greek dances’ performance is approximately 90 minutes, without intermission. Particular attention has been placed in ensuring that all elements are as close as possible to the originals.
The main troupe is composed of 50 dancers, 25 men and 25 women. In addition, it has dancers from regions with a very particular style, such as Crete or Pontos, who perform only their local dances, as well as invited dancers from particular villages. The troupe rehearses every evening prior to the performance for 1 1/2 hour. By dancing every single day of the year they improve constantly and keep in form.
Note: During the 26-29 June, 3-6 July, 14-17 August, and 21-24 August, 22-24 September periods there will be no performances.
