KOTOPOULI, MARIKA
(Athens, 1887 - 1954)

Great actress who played for the first time at the theatre group of her parents in the age of 40 days(!), but she was established as a protagonist through her appearances at the "VASSILIKON THEATRON" and the directions of Thomas Ikonomou ("A Midsummer's Night Dream", Goethe's "Iphigeneia in Tauris and "Faust"). The greatest moments of her long career are considered to be the foundation of the "ELEFTHERA SKINI" (1929), Euripides' "Hecuba" (1927), Sophocles' "Electra" under the direction of Koun (1939) and Aeschylus' "Oresteia" at the National Theatre (1949) directed by Dim.Rondiris.
