Haris Tsalpara “Anadysi… and other stories” at Theatre Of The No

Her first solo album–book “Anadysi” is an innovative work that combines Eastern modality with electronic elements, delivering a musical journey beyond ordinary forms. It includes 6 spoken word poems and 7 songs, with texts, lyrics, and music written by Tsalpara herself. The work explores profound themes such as entropy, rebirth, and the perception of time.
Her music forms a fascinating sonic mosaic, weaving together traditional motifs, trip-hop, beats, noise, and baroque elements. The constant transformation of the soundscapes goes beyond the usual “verse-chorus” structure, offering a freer and more dynamic musical experience. The evening unfolds in two parts: In the first, the audience will journey through the texts and songs of “Anadysi”, discovering Haris Tsalpara’s unique musical world. In the second part, the music turns into a celebration with beloved folk, rebetiko, and traditional songs we all know, sing, or dance to. A unique experience where new and old songs, innovative sounds, and familiar melodies coexist.

“Safe Haven", Mary Cox & Sara Ettlinger
Duration: 1 October – 6 November 2025-09-25
Hours: Tuesday and Thursday 1 -3:30 p.m. and Saturday 4 – 7 p.m.
In a two-women exhibition, Mary Cox and Sarah Ettlinger address a common theme, a sanctuary facing an uncertain future. Their paintings focus on a special swimming place, dear to each artist, the Kenwood Ladies Ponds in London and a public access beach in Vouliagmeni. The work highlights the vulnerability of both, the likelihood that they will not stay the same and will lose certain qualities valued by the artists.
