Anastasia Antonakaki
Writer/Director in Athens, GR
I am Anastasia Antonakaki, Writer/Theatre Director currently based in Athens, GR.
I blend Soma and Logos. I believe in empty space and in the actor as the true center. I love working with light and darkness. Operating from Theatre, I also do Films.
I hold a PhD in Movement, Image & ReEnchantment in the fields of Performing Arts & Sociology (AUTh, GR).
I consistently contribute to the research of acting, body movement and the interaction between Theatre and Cinema in the fields of text, space, acting and technique.
I am involved in multiple aspects of my projects, such as production, movement coaching, choreography, lighting and sound design.
My projects address significant societal issues, with a particular focus on concepts of time, the interaction between the individual and the collective, financial struggles, migration and gender dynamics.
I have an extensive background in dance (freestyle & choreography) in many genres.
I am engaged in academia since 2011. Graduated from Law School (BSc) and went on with MScs on Sociology, Dance, Theatre and Film.
