Iakovos Kambanellis, the late “patriarch of the modern Greek theater,” has written this dark comedy of a fictional Greek writer who tries to convince his friend to write each other’s eulogy to promote themselves as acclaimed writers. Kambanellis' ingenuity and originality reveals dark and timeless humor.

"...Michael Dukakis’ genius emotional intelligence took off in an unforgettable performance, which had the peculiarity of making you laugh and be moved simultaneously, with quality, dark and contemporary humor. THE EULOGY has been interpreted by many actors from time to time, but Dukakis seduces the viewer with his honesty, humanity and absolute identification with what Iakovos Kambanellis wanted to express..." - Yianna Katsageorgi, Editor-in-Chief at the National Herald
