THEATRE OF THE NO, Athens' first English speaking  theatre, proudly presents a revolutionary reimagining of Ruggero Leoncavallo’s  timeless opera in it’s newest rendition:  "I Pagliacci: Pedal to the Metal."  

This daring fusion of opera and heavy metal, is brought to life through the heavy metal orchestration and electric bass of Philip Modinos and the electric guitar of Sinnik Al, with stage direction by Dimosthenis Stavrianos. Premiering on October 30th , the show will run for only 10 shows, every Wednesday as part of the theatre's innovative "No Opera Wednesdays" initiative.

As the haunting melodies of Leoncavallo's iconic score  collide with the fierce energy of heavy metal, bringing new intensity and passion to the tragic tale of love, jealousy, and betrayal. The bold adaptation merges the emotional depth of traditional opera with the raw power of heavy metal, promising to captivate a diverse audience from opera aficionados to metal enthusiasts.
