"THE KOUP SKOUP PODCAST"
In Cyprus, dance is regarded with the same importance as all other art forms. But how much, ultimately, do we as Cypriots promote dance? Does the Cypriot state and government support young male and female dancers? Is it worthwhile for a young person to pursue this art in Cyprus today?
Founder and Artistic Director Maria Gerasimou and Co-Founder Polina Panagiotou, two talented dancers, choreographers and teachers recently joined "The Koup Skoup Podcast" to discuss these important questions.
