Greek Folk Theater of Manos Katrakis Explanation: I don't know how credible the other references are, but this is more "correct" English than "Popular Theater" |

Elliniko Laiko Theatro? Explanation: Manos Katrakis Ellinko Laiko Theatro would be my preference, but as per my discussion entry I suspect there is no choice but to use the already mentioned and established Greek Popular Theatre. By the way, I would have put an apostrophe after Katrakis, but the system will not let me! -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 7 hrs (2018-08-27 17:53:50 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Apologies: I din’t mean to miss out the second i in Elliniko |

Manos Katrakis' (Greek) People's Theatre Explanation: I'll suggest this as an option, because there's something to be said for 'People's Theatre' as sounding more natural in English. Unfortunately, with 'Greek People's Theatre', there's the obvious drawback that any adjective at the beginning is taken to refer to 'People' rather than 'Theatre', as in 'Young People's Theatre' - and how can you get round this, unless you say 'People's Theatre of Greece'? Here are some examples in support of 'People's Theatre': The Oxford Companion to Theatre and Performance https://books.google.co.uk/books?isbn=0199574197 - Μετάφραση αυτής της σελίδας Dennis Kennedy - 2010 - Performing Arts In 1955 he founded the People's Theatre in Athens where he produced ... Katrakis also starred in several films, including George Tzavella's Antigone and Theo For the theatrical work of Kondylaki’s O Patouchas at Manos Katrakis’ People’s Theatre I used the lyre and lute together with other instruments. http://yannismarkopoulos.com/export.php For more about the use of the terms ‘popular theatre’ and ‘people’s theatre’, see here: http://www.dramaonlinelibrary.com/genres/popular-theatre-iid... |

Reference: Greek Popular Theatre Reference information: In the World Encyclopedia of Contemporary Theatre, Volume 1, Europe (see link below):To Elliniko Laiko Theatro (Greek Popular Theatre) was founded by Manos Katrakis etc. And it should be "popular", not "folk"; "folk" refers to "traditional" e.g. "folk songs".
