| Description |
The stage show tells two stories, one of the historical Zorbas, who one day appears to the author of the novel Zorba the Greek, Nikos Kazantzakis. Fearing the eclipse of his true identity by the fictional Alexis Zorbas, he pleads with Kazantzakis for an accurate representation of his life. It also tells a contemporary tale, with John, an actor who has received some terrible news about his health that forces him to re-evaluate what’s important in his life and thus, concludes that he needs to perform one last play. |
