Michalis Tamboukas
Widely regarded as one of the best Greek stage and screen actors of his generation, Michalis Tamboukas is a renowned "chameleon" of remarkable versatility in transformations both outside and inside, expressed through his unique interpretations in a wide range of demanding roles. His excellent work as a multifarious theatre artist from a young age includes brilliant performances in productions of plays such as Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's "Faust - Part I" (1993), Sophocles' "Oedipus Rex" and Henrik Ibsen's "A Doll's House" (1994), William Shakespeare's "A Midsummer Night's Dream" (1996), and Timberlake Wertenbaker's "The Love of the Nightingale" (1998) along with exquisite film and TV roles. Together with his prolific work as playwright and stage director in his multi-talented qualities, his following course in inspired incarnations of subtle profoundness, charisma, intelligence, sensation and insights also includes, among others, his notable performances of memorable roles such as in films by Nikos Panayotopoulos like I kori tou Rembrandt (2015), his staggering Jerry in The Zoo Story (2016), an enjoyable Father Robert - Cornelius in Iakovos i ypotagi (2018) and the hilarious Argan in O kata fantasian asthenis (2021).
