Languages
The Apology of Socrates lasts approximately 80 minutes with no intermission. The performance is given in English or Modern Greek, using translations by Yannis Simonides, Loukas Skipitaris or Electra Andreadi, but can be presented in any country, employing an ingenious on-stage PowerPoint projection of this edited stage version of the text, in the language of the particular audience. The Apology has recently been presented in Spanish in Montevideo, Uruguay, and in French at the University of Strasburg, while translations in Turkish, German, Russian, Bulgarian, Polish and Arabic are currently being developed. More translations may be developed upon request.
