Credits

The dancers would like to take this opportunity to thank our instructor Irene Savas, for her tireless efforts and dedication to preserving Greek dances, customs and traditions. Also we would like to thank Dr. Athan Savas, without whom our performances would not go so smoothly! His continued support of the dance group and the Boston Lykeion in general has made all the difference.

"Thank you, Dr. and Mrs. Savas!"
