Welcome.
Look for a local director or producer there and or make it yourself. Cheers!
I have done this the past 10 years .I staged my theatre plays and film production. The market here is small so I focus on writing more international themes.Thanks

Prodromos Trochidis As far as I can make out, any kind of representation – lawyers, agents, managers – is rare in Greece, but it is fairly standard in the US.
