The legend of the Greek rock scene returns after "Nekyia" with a new performance-experience. An electrified ode to the prince we all once loved, directed by the award-winning creator of "Magnetic Fields".

"Nekyia" began as a friendly chat between Giannis Aggelakas and Olia Lazaridou, and in 2023, with both on stage and under the direction of Christos Papadopoulos, it premiered at the Onassis Stegi, sold out, was published as a book, and traveled to Amsterdam and Thessaloniki.
"The Little Prince Blues" began even earlier; back in Aggelakas’ teenage years, when he first discovered Antoine de Saint-Exupéry’s "The Little Prince". A book he kept on his shelf with the cover always facing outward. To remember. To not forget that “all grown-ups were once children… but only a few of them remember it.” Or, as he puts it, “A world cut off from its childhood is lifeless, frightening and bleak.”
Aggelakas envisioned the stage version of the famous 1943 book as a kind of blues, a long, resonant pulse, at times melancholic, at times celebratory, paying tribute to Pavlos Sidiropoulos and his iconic album "The Prince’s Blues". Like an electromagnetic wave of words, music, and songs that move through soul and body, through earthly wars and interplanetary journeys, through the Pilot and the Little Prince, through the musicians and performers on stage, and the audience itself.
“A world cut off from its childhood is lifeless, frightening and bleak.”
With Aggelakas himself in the leading role and award-winning filmmaker Giorgos Gousis ("Magnetic Fields") directing, the stage becomes a universe made of words and thoughts that flash with light—a performance that affirms life, love, and friendship. Because by now we all know:
“You can only see well with your heart. The essence of things is invisible to the eye.”
