Maria Mourelatou

Member of THEAMA (Theatre for Disabled People), the first and internationally acclaimed Greek theatre consisted of disabled actors in its main composition (such as the renowned actor and director Vassilis Oikonomou who founded THEAMA in 2010, Panos Zournatzidis, Marina Besiri, Christina Toumba, Giorgos Iliakis and herself) as well as by non-disabled ones (such as Aimiliani Avraam, Michalis Tamboukas and Efi Toumba). The documentary THE.AM.A. (2014), directed by Eliana Perifanou and Maria Sidiropoulou depicts the work of this exquisite theatre group and it was filmed mainly during the rehearsals and the performance of Edward Albee's first one-act play "The Zoo Story", a critically acclaimed production brilliantly directed by Vassilis Oikonomou. On the occasion of World Theatre Day (WTD) March 27, the documentary was broadcast that day in 2015 by the Greek TV network of Public Television.
