Stages Network, the new company created by Dionysis Panagiwtakis, brings a breath of innovation to the culture and live entertainment sector in Greece. Going beyond the limits of a traditional production company, Stages Network aims to become a hub of creativity, technology and talent. The company operates across a wide spectrum of cultural and entertainment activities, with emphasis on theatrical and musical productions, organizing live events, as well as managing and developing artistic venues. With ten historic theaters: Evi, Dimitris Horn, Micro Horn, Emborikon, Apothiki, Pireos 131, Embassy, Lambeti, Psyrri and Taratsa Lambeti, along with a multicultural space, Stage Seven, Stages Network aspires to become a central hub for artistic creation and cultural dialogue.
At the core of Stages Network’s vision lies the belief that performing arts belong to everyone. Through the integration of innovation and the use of immersive technologies and interactive elements, the company seeks to make performing arts more open and participatory, where every story can find its stage.
Stages Network invests in creating modern, technologically advanced spaces that encourage artistic diversity, experimentation and collaboration. At the same time, it seeks to build bridges between Greek and international creators, promoting cooperation and the exchange of ideas.
