The Life of Aristotle Onassis at Pallas Theater

November 10, 2019 @ 9:00 pm - January 12, 2020 @ 11:30 pm

Season: 2019-2020
Start: 10 November 2019
End: 12 January 2020
Title of the show: “Onassis: I want it all”

The 2019-20 theatrical season will begin with a highly anticipated production that will be discussed, with Theatrical Scenes presenting for the first time worldwide at Pallas Theater, an original play on the life of Aristotle Onassis, the Greek who marked the international course of the second half of the 20th century with his international career.

In October 2019, Stamatis Fassoulis will sign and direct the performance “Onassis – I want it all”, which will theatrically capture the personality and action of a man who was and still is a benchmark of business and lived as the richest man in the world.

The life of Aristotle Onassis resembles a modern fairy tale and as such has been told hundreds of times in publications from all over the world, film adaptations and even books. The turbulent life of a ‘sharp’ mind who ‘read’ his times and managed to become one of the most powerful men of the 20th century. In an eventful professional and personal career on all levels, he clashed with the greatest economic and political interests of the time, and at the same time connected with and made his mark on the most iconic and famous women of the era, such as Tina Livanou, Jackie Kennedy and Maria Callas. Courage and entrepreneurial instinct, that was what characterized him and was the diptych of his success.

The performance by Stamatis Fassoulis, consisting of a company of 30 actors, based on international literature, journalistic research and personal testimonies, will be a theatrical performance of Onassis’ life with all the elements of genuine theater. Action, suspense, hubris and catharsis.

In the role of Aristotle Onassis, Stamatis Fassoulis. As for the women in his life, Jackie Kennedy is played by Dimitra Matsouka, Maria Callas by Katerina Papoutsaki and Tina Livanou by Eugenia Dimitropoulou. In the role of the demonic journalist who investigates and records his life, Memos Begnis. Onassis at a young age is played by Agesilaos Mikelatos.
