About Don't Panic














  Don’t Panic puppet theatre was founded somewhere in Greece between Crete, Kalamata and Athens in 2014 by Eleni Xylouri and Lita Aslanoglou.
  They met in Athens at the Ayusaya! Workshop, run by Stathis Markopoulos in 2009.They travelled together with their solo shows, performing in the street, in bars and festivals, in cities, towns, islands and villages of Greece and abroad.
  In 2014, after many trips, much laughter, many tears, worries, hot and cold weather, good and bad moments… they had their first group performance.
  Since then, Don’t Panic puppet theatre is collaborating also with other puppeteers and musicians for their shows and they are travelling in Greece and international festivals. Their shows, non verbal, aimed primarily at an adult audience.
