ΠΡΩΤΟ ΘΕΜΑ podcastΛάζαρος Γεωργακόπουλος: « Το «The Humans» είναι ένα έργο που ασχολείται με τις φοβίες που θα περάσει ο άνθρωπος στη ζωή του».Με αφορμή τη συμμετοχή του για δεύτερη χρονιά στην παράσταση "The Humans" που παίζεται στο θέατρο Μουσούρη σε σκηνοθεσία Κωνσταντίνου Μαρκουλάκη ο δημοφιλής ηθοποιός μίλησε στο protothema.gr και στον Νίκο Θρασυβούλου. Γραμμένη με ένα μείγμα ντοκιμαντερίστικου νατουραλισμού και θεατρικής τόλμης, η τραγικωμωδία του Stephen Karam αποτυπώνει την ουσία της ανθρώπινης κατάστασης με ακρίβεια, συμπόνια και απαράμιλλη αυθεντικότητα.
Το "The Humans" ξετυλίγει το κουβάρι της ζωής της οικογένειας Μπλέικ, κατά τη διάρκεια ενός μόνο απογεύματος, προσκαλώντας το κοινό να παρακολουθήσει από κοντά τις αγωνίες, τα όνειρα και τους ανομολόγητους φόβους τους.Ο Έρικ και η Ντίντρη, οι γονείς, φτάνουν, μαζί με την Μόμο, τη μητέρα του Έρικ - που είναι σε αναπηρικό καροτσάκι και πάσχει από άνοια - και τη μεγάλη τους κόρη Έιμι, στην Τσάιναταουν της Νέας Υόρκης, για να γιορτάσουν την ημέρα των Ευχαριστιών στο διαμέρισμα όπου μόλις έχουν μετακομίσει η μικρή τους κόρη, η Μπρίτζετ, με τον σύντροφό της, τον Ρίτσαρντ. Ο Στίβεν Κάραμ είναι ένας καταξιωμένος Αμερικανός θεατρικός συγγραφέας, τα έργα του οποίου έχουν αποσπάσει πολλά βραβεία και διακρίσεις.
Τα έργα του είναι γνωστά για τη διεισδυτική εξερεύνηση των ανθρώπινων συναισθημάτων και των σχέσεων. Τέλος ο ηθοποιός αναφέρθηκε και στην τηλεοπτική σειρά του Alpha «O Τιμωρός» που πρωταγωνιστεί.Με αφορμή τη συμμετοχή του για δεύτερη χρονιά στην παράσταση "The Humans" που παίζεται στο θέατρο Μουσούρη σε σκηνοθεσία Κωνσταντίνου Μαρκουλάκη ο δημοφιλής ηθοποιός μίλησε στο protothema.gr και στον Νίκο Θρασυβούλου.

ΠΡΩΤΟ ΘΕΜΑ podcastΚωνσταντίνος Μαρκουλάκης: «Φτιάχνω παραστάσεις γιατί θέλω να μιλήσω αληθινά στον κόσμο»Ο ηθοποιός και σκηνοθέτης, παρουσιάζει για πρώτη φορά στην Ελλάδα τη δραματική κωμωδία «Στο διπλανό δωμάτιο ή το έργο του δονητή», στο θέατρο Βρετάνια, τη θεατρική σεζόν που μόλις ξεκίνησε. Με αυτή την αφορμή μίλησε στο protothema.gr και στον Νίκο Θρασυβούλου.
Λόγω των διαδοχικών ατυχημάτων των δύο αρχικών πρωταγωνιστών, Άκη Σακελλαρίου και Νάντιας Κοντογεώργη, τους πρωταγωνιστικούς ρόλους αναλαμβάνουν ο ίδιος και η Γαλήνη Χατζηπασχάλη. Τους επόμενους μήνες αναμένεται οι δύο αγαπημένοι ηθοποιοί να επιστρέψουν σε διπλή διανομή. Αναφέρθηκε στην υπόθεση του έργου και εξήγησε πως ένα έργο για τη σεξουαλικότητα, την αγάπη και τον ηλεκτρισμό είναι μια σοβαρή κωμωδία.
Σχετικά με την υπόθεση είπε ότι στα τέλη του 1880, μερικά χρόνια μετά την εφεύρεση του ηλεκτρισμού, στην Βικτωριανή Νέα Υόρκη, όπου βασιλεύει η συντήρηση και ο πουριτανισμός, ένας καταξιωμένος γιατρός, αφοσιωμένος επιστήμονας και οικογενειάρχης, ανακαλύπτει, με αγνές προθέσεις, με στόχο την θεραπεία της «υστερίας» των γυναικών και ενίοτε των αντρών ασθενών του μια εκπληκτική, νέα και πρωτοπόρα συσκευή: τον ηλεκτρικό δονητή.
Είπε ότι είναι ένα γυναικείο έργο που αφορά άμεσα τους άνδρες. Βέβαια αναφέρθηκε και στην παράσταση που παρουσιάζει και σκηνοθετεί για 2η χρονιά στο θέατρο Μουσούρη. Ένα έργο, που μιλά με διαύγεια, χιούμορ, τρυφερότητα και βαθιά αγάπη για «τη ζωή, όπως προσπαθούμε να τη ζήσουμε». Πρόκειται για το “The Humans” – το συναρπαστικό, βραβευμένο με Tony Award, θεατρικό έργο του Stephen Karam.

Pomegranate Health[IMJ On-Air] Is the jury still out on omega-3 supplementation?The theory that certain fatty acids are essential to the diet and associated with reduced cardiovascular risk has been controversial since it was floated in the 1950s. In 1971 Danish researchers published the results from a cross-sectional study of Inuit people living on the west coast of Greenland. They ate a fish-based diet rich in polyunsaturated fatty acids known as omega-3s, which were found in their tissues along with much lower levels of pre-β-lipoprotein and plasma-triglycerides when compared to controls. That association between a fishy diet and lowered cardiovascular risk has been replicated in mult...
