The Beggars' Operas

The music theatre company “The Beggars’ Operas” was founded in 2002 by composer Kharálampos Goyós, designer Constantinos Zamanis and producer Gabriella Triantafyllis, with the intention of mounting modern, low-cost productions of opera and music theatre in unconventional venues.

"Kudos to The Beggars' Operas and I hope they go on with the same passion." Stefanos Lazaridis
