collector of oral delivery Giambattista Basile.
In the story added piecemeal and part from the
poem of the English poetess Anne Sexton “Briar Rose” (Sleeping
Beauty)

Basile. It was supported by the Arts Council 2004 and she performed with in Fringe
Festival at 2006
 In “ Arachne in Si
bemol” this all –female show, the 17th century text is captured
through expression in original vocal, and piano scores, Cello and percussion. Marika makes
the journey of Sleep –Death with her music in parallel with
Talia Sleeping Beauty of the tale on a path that runs from her
adolescence to her adulthood using very often the bitter Parody
She sings with continuity of her body the
twin marionettes Sun and Moon twin children of Talia s
(Sleeping Beauty of this tale). She revives the magic and at the same time the cruel
atmosphere of the story while bringing to the surface the complete mental
timeless background
"Marika creates one of the most
anguished avant-garde cries of our time Channels both Maria Kallas and Janis
Joplin" (International Herald Tribune)
