Despoina Christianoudi

I have completed her BA in Acting in Athens. As an actor I have focused on theatre performances in which I interpreted roles from ancient Greek tragedy and contemporary plays. I trained as an acting coach at the Royal Central School of Speech and Drama (MA). I am currently a Ph.D. researcher at the Royal Holloway University. My research interest is focused on ancient Greek tragedy and how can be taught with the use of Greek folk dances. I am currently teaching ancient Greek drama at the London College of Performing Arts. During the first term of the 2024-2025 academic year, I also led the Theatre & Text 2: Greek Tragedy module at Royal Holloway University of London. This past August, I served as the movement director for The Suitcase: Losing Famagusta, a solo performance staged in London.
