Ο Βασιλιάς Ανήλιαγος

In a shadowed forest beside a towering keep, a lively troupe of characters gathers: a king named Trikardos, his son Aniliagos, loyal followers, and the enigmatic lady of the castle, Rini, alongside her confidante Margarona. The stage is set with rustic villagers, a weary old man named Menas, his wife Domna, and the youthful farmer Floro, whose banter weaves together humor, longing, and the everyday worries of a remote community.

The opening scene finds Menas, Domna, and Floro trading sharp‑tongued verses about age, desire, and the mysterious allure of the castle’s lady. Their dialogue crackles with gossip about secret spells, hidden treasures, and the promise of a knightly quest, hinting at tensions between the humble folk and the distant nobility. As the sun fades, the characters’ voices echo through the trees, foreshadowing a clash of ambitions and hidden motives.

Rendered in lyrical Greek dialogue, the play blends folk wisdom with courtly intrigue, offering listeners a vivid portrait of love, power, and the restless yearning that stirs beneath a medieval landscape.
