FESTIVAL HELLENIKA® is an
exciting and diverse arts festival
fostering Hellenic links to the arts
and celebrating Hellenic culture.
‘Hellenic’ because the focus is not
on Greek nationality but Hellenic
culture, both inside and outside
Greece. Anybody with an interest
and a passion for Hellenic art
and culture is welcome, indeed
encouraged to participate.
Hellenism represents a culture
beyond borders, with a long and
significant tradition both inside
and outside of what is now the
Greek Nation. It flourishes in
Cyprus, The United States, Canada,
Brazil, Australia and elsewhere,
with major contributions from
many diverse people, from Lord
Byron to Con the Fruiterer.
FESTIVAL HELLENIKA®
(formerly The Greek Cultural
Month) has been held annually in
Adelaide during March, April and
May and is a major part of the
Hellenic cultural scene in South
Australia. It is an open platform
for people of any background to
showcase Hellenic connections
to the arts and their Australian
manifestations.
We actively support local artists
and work to make FESTIVAL
HELLENIKA® accessible to the
broader community. In this way
we inform, broaden horizons,
breakdown stereotypes, and
foster greater harmony and
understanding.
FESTIVAL HELLENIKA®
is coordinated by the South
Australian Council for the Greek
Cultural Month Incorporated.
It is a community, umbrella
organisation, with membership
open to any group, organisation
and society with an interest in
Hellenic connections to the arts.
Established in 1991, with the
support of the Consulate General
of Greece in South Australia, it
is non-political, non-sectarian,
non profit and independent. The
Governing board of volunteers
is elected every two years by
member organisations.
Life comes to the Festival through
artists, presenters, sponsors and
audiences like you. We welcome
you all and invite you to come join
us in celebrating with FESTIVAL
HELLENIKA®, as a vital part of
Australia’s cultural diversity.

αναδεικνύουμε τη ελληνική
δημιουργία σε όλες τις
εκφράσεις της εδώ στους
Αντίποδες και ελπίζουμε για
τους επόμενους μήνες να

IS SAPPHO A ROLE MODEL FOR TODAY’S
FEMINISTS?
Talk / Ομιλία (English)
DATE: Thursday 2 April @ 7pm
Presented by Beatrice Howarth.
Beatrice Howarth continues her engaging and informative series
of talks on the lives and contribution of ancient women. Sappho
was a Greek lyric poet, born on the island of Lesbos. The
Alexandrians included her in the list of nine lyric poets. It is
believed she was born around 630 and 612 BCE and although
little is known about her life, her writing was thought to have
exerted considerable influence on the classical world. This talk
will look at the historical, economic and cultural developments
of Greece during Sappho’s time and how her life and works
influenced later generations. The talk will be fully illustrated and
include readings of selected works by Sappho.

THE GOOD SON BY ELENA CARAPETIS
Theatre / Θέατρο (English)
DATE: 8 April – 25 April @ 7pm
Presented by THE OTHER ONES.
Frank yearns for a different life. He is the loyal, loving son of
Meda, a Greek immigrant divorcee. They share a close bond but
the line between parent and child has become claustrophobically
blurred. But Meda harbours a dark secret that threatens to crush
Frank’s dreams and catapult Meda towards certain disaster.
Inspired by true events, The Good Son is a bold, funny and
electrifying new play that explores our idea of family, loyalty and
lengths we go to change the cards life has dealt us. The Good
Son is the debut play by award-winning actor Elena Carapetis
(Between Two Waves, Othello), reuniting her with award-winning
director Corey McMahon (Between Two Waves, Eh Joe) as the
creative partnership THE OTHER ONES.
Featuring: Renato Musolino, Eugenia Fragos, Adriana Bonaccurso

through the Independent Makers and Presenters Program.

NURSES AND THE ANZAC CENTENARY
Function / Talk / Tour (English)
DATE: Sunday 19 April @ 12pm
Presented by OEEGA.
Australia’s Commemorative ANZAC Plaque on the Greek Island
of Lemnos reads: “AUSTRALIA AND LEMNOS ISLAND ARE
FOREVER LINKED BY THE EVENTS OF WORLD WAR ONE
(1914 - 1918)”.
Although neutral during the early stages of WW1, in 1915, Greece
offered the allies the island of Lemnos as a hospital camp and
strategic naval base from which to launch attacks on the
Dardanelles and Gallipoli. Australia’s first overseas deployment
of over 130 nurses, led by Matron Grace Wilson, served under
great adversity in the camps and hospital ships.
This moving event includes the laying of a wreath at the Gallipoli
memorial, a special guest speaker and lunch, followed by a tour
of the Army Museum of SA.

BYZANTINE WOMEN
Talk / Ομιλία (English)
DATE: Wednesday 29 April @ 7pm
Presented by Toula Kritas.
What was life like for women living in the Byzantine Empire?
What role did women play? The Byzantine Empire, which lasted
for over 1100 years, is generally perceived as a patriarchal
society. However, women actively participated in many aspects
of Byzantine society, including the political, religious and
economic spheres.
This talk will explore the lives of empresses, saints, nuns
and the ‘ordinary’, everyday Byzantine woman using evidence
from a variety of sources. Subjects will include Empress
Theodora who was a circus performer prior to marrying Emperor
Justinian I, Empress Irene who reigned as a sole ruler for a
number of years, female saints and their healing shrines,
the so-called “Transvestite Nuns,” historian Anna Komnena,
hymnographer Kassiani, and others.
Come along and meet some of these fascinating and often
un-celebrated citizens of Byzantium.
