Who gets the €8 ticket?

Will my kid follow it without Greek?

It is a spoken play in Greek and the dialogue carries the story, so it works best for kids who understand Greek.

About

A children's theater version of The Nutcracker, back for a fourth season on the children's stage at Avlaia Theater in Piraeus. Kids watch the classic holiday story play out on stage from their seats. It is a spoken play in Greek, so it suits kids who follow Greek well. Families without Greek will find the story hard to follow.
