Gourou, gourou, gourou

By Maria Gregoriou

If you have children you have surely heard of the musical Gourounasmata, and if they are fans you are sure to know that the musical is a trilogy with so many songs and dance routines that one can hardly remember which pig does what.

So, to rid us of this confusion, they are back again but this time they will be playing in Gourounasmata The Concert, with two performances on Saturday and two on Tuesday in Nicosia.

The concert will combine all the most-loved songs and dances from all three instalments and bring them together in this very special Christmas treat for children.

The musical will be accompanied by an orchestra. All songs are composed by Cypriot composer Alex Panayi and lyrics by Cypriot singer Stavros Stavrou.

The songs will entertain and once again teach the children the lessons of friendship, love, kindness and compassion.

So come along and join Piggy, Peggy and Poggy, and children from the TV talent show The Musical Kids for four concerts.

The Cyprus Mail is the only English-language daily newspaper published in Cyprus. It was established in 1945 and today, with its popular and widely-read website, the Cyprus Mail is among the most trusted news sites in Cyprus. The newspaper is not affiliated with any political parties and has always striven to maintain its independence. Over the past 70-plus years, the Cyprus Mail, with a small dedicated team, has covered momentous events in Cyprus’ modern history, chronicling the last gasps of British colonial rule, Cyprus’ truncated independence, the coup and Turkish invasion, and the decades of negotiations to stitch the divided island back together, plus a myriad of scandals, murders, and human interests stories that capture the island and its -people. Observers describe it as politically conservative.
