Greek actor Thanasis Sarantos praised the timeless character of the play along with the intercultural exchange of the two countries.
"At the beginning, there was fear because we are two different cultures, two different languages, but afterward we saw that we have so much in common," Sarantos said.
"We are two nations with great ancient civilizations with respect to each other since ancient times. It was an exquisite experience with the whole team, the actors; the team spirit was incredible."
The Chinese play will run until Dec 2 at the National Theatre in Athens. It is performed in Greek and Chinese, with subtitles in Greek, Chinese, and English.
