About the MC:

Odysseas Deniz Ürem is a stand-up comedian based in Athens. He performs regularly in both English and Greek, and has gigged at Losantzele and Mic Drop comedy clubs in Athens, as well as theater venues all around Greece. Odysseas’ comedy revolves around subjects such as family, racism, death, sex, religion and among others it also consists of many surrealistic takes on everyday life.

Currently, Odysseas is one half of the (Greek) double-bill show “Two people telling jokes” (“Δύο που λένε αστεία”) with comedian Alexandros Paspardanis at Calderone bar, which has been consistently sold out since November 2022. Aside from being an absolute comedic treasure chest, Odysseas was also one of the very first comedians to perform with us back in 2019 (literally, in our first ever show), and he’s been killing it ever since.

About the headliner:

Mihalis Sevasteris is a comedian based in Athens and it is crucial that you know he is vegan. Some people describe him as a gambling robot with the sole purpose in life to get everyone to eat collard greens. 

Mihalis’ comedy covers anything from adventures of survival on public transport, to being constantly worried he’ll get his bag stolen at coffee shops, to trying to confirm whether Jason Statham is in fact his uncle.

He presented his first solo show “I’m vegan (“Είμαι vegan”), in Greek, at Losantzele comedy club during the 2022-2023 season, before touring in multiple cities around Greece including Patra, Heraklion, Larissa, Thessaloniki, and more. This season he’ll be presenting a “Best Of” selection of his work, at Losantzele again. 

His restless demeanor (#NOT) and his immovable poker face will win you over no matter how difficult your week has been. Maybe enough to make you consider being vegan, who knows!

On October 24, 1963, the Swedish Academy announced Giorgos Seferis as its laureate for the Nobel Prize. Sixty years after that historic occasion, the Benaki Museum holds the opening of the exhibition entitled “George Seferis: sixty years later," dedicated to the historic anniversary of the announcement itself and the award ceremony that followed it, on December 10, 1963.

Built around Seferis’ Nobel Prize, which belongs in the permanent collection of the Ghika Gallery, the exhibition presents a range of artefacts and photographic documents. It comprises three units: The first pertains to the day of the announcement, the second centres on the evening of the award ceremony, and the last is dedicated to its aftermath and features relevant press articles, letters, and telegrams of congratulations. Posters, newspapers of the day, and visual and audio documents displayed alongside personal objects of the poet’s create an environment that evokes the magnitude of the event and showcases his personality.

The material making up the exhibition derives from Seferis’ archive, which is held at the Gennadius Library, the collections of the Benaki Museum, and private collections.

IN COLLABORATION WITH the Swedish Embassy in Athens

Opening Hours: Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, 10:00 - 18:00
