DRAMA GROUP OF STOUPA/NEOCHORI 2010
The drama group of Stoupa, otherwise know as The Neon Players, meets regularly at the Kafeneon in Neochori for play readings and to rehearse occasional productions for the public.
Their production in December 2009, ‘A Dinner Party to Die For, at Cummerbund Hall’ was a great success. Originally planned for one performance, it was extended to two by popular demand.
Whether you enjoy acting, or are more interested in behind the scenes activities, they would like to hear from you.
