Greek Culture Minister Lydia Koniordou is in Berlin for a guest appearance in world renowned theatre director Robert Wilson’s “Luther Dancing with the Gods”.
She was invited by Wilson to participate in the play, which celebrates the 500th anniversary of Martin Luther’s publication of the 95 Theses. According to legend, Luther hammered his theses to the door of the Castle Church in Wittenberg. Koniordou will participate without remuneration.

In Germany, she will also meet with government and local officials on issues of cultural collaboration.
On October 5, the Minister will travel to Basel, Switzerland, for the inauguration of “Culturescapes”, which will open with “The Great Tamer”, produced by Dimitris Papaioannou.
On October 11, Koniordou will meet with French Culture Minister Francoise Nyssen at the annual Frankfurt Book Fair, where France will be the guest of honour, and their German counterpart, Monika Grueters.
