Students Anaïs Anica, Aryaman and Mal Fleury from the University College of Groningen talk with Dr. Eleftheria Ioannidou, an associate professor of theatre and performance studies at University of Groningen.

Her research explores the twentieth century reception of Greek theatre and drama with a particular emphasis on national identity, politics and ideology.

She is co-managing editor of the European Journal of Theatre and Performance of ISTAP, and has published extensively on the uses of the classical past under fascist regimes during the interwar period and the contemporary far right.
