"Zorba" is not a simple ballet show. It is a show, containing originally a combination of various artistic activities like music, dance, speech, theatre and song. It is an "opera omnia". These are the comments on "Zorba", generated by Lorca Massine, chorographer and dancer, in the sounds of Mikis Theorakis' music, in 1988 for the arena of Verona and since then it has been on tour all over the world. Theodorakis himself noticed that Zorba ballet is somehow the most representative among his plays because it contains all the three main influential trends: the European, Greek and the Cretan one, leading to his shaping up as a composer.
