Dear Mark and group,
If you are interested in further reading on  Karagiosis, try and find a
book called 
"Behind the White Screen" by Sotiris Spartharis. (I think he is
Evgenious' Dad)
It is a personal memoir of his career performing in coffee houses all
over Greece, through both wars.  (It makes quite a lively read...) 
Plus, additional chapters include a history and description of the art
of Karagiosis.

"Behind the White Screen" was originally published in Greece by Pergamos
(1960), but the copy I have was republished by Red Dust Inc. in New York
(1977)    218 E. 81st St. N.Y.,N.Y. 10028

Brian
