"The Nanies" first performed by Karolos Koun's Art Theater in 1970, represents some of the best work done by Greek playwrights who emerged in the sixties and seventies. It is a play about a world where two people wait for a convenient solution to the hopelessness generated by a materialistic society devoid of the humanist vision, a solution that induces a dangerous hypnosis of the mind and creates a hysteria of acquisition culminating in violence and corruption.
