Anthony Skordi’s ONASSIS – The One Man Show

A new theater production on the life of Aristotle Onassis, called “Onassis, The Play” comes to Atlanta after a run in LA. Hosted by PushPush Arts, from the page to the stage, catch it before it goes to Off- Broadway, the one-man show will be performed by veteran Greek actor Anthony Skordi and directed by Dikran Tulaine.

“His hospitality was legendary, his charm mythical, his prowess unstoppable, his power formidable and his fortune… unsurpassed. Now, celebrated actor, Anthony Skordi, brings this larger-than-life persona to the stage in his one-man production of Onassis. Aristotle Onassis’ life has been referred to as both a storybook existence, as well as a Greek tragedy. Skordi has exhaustedly researched the man who entertained everyone from business tycoons and royalty to the icons of stage and screen, as well as Presidents… and their wives, to offer a glimpse into the opulent world of the man who made and lived by his own rules as he went along. The billionaire faced scandals, deaths and what many would call the ‘Onassis Curse.’

Veteran Greek-British actor Anthony Skordi will embody the role of Aristotle Onassis.
