The manners and customs of the past, when the consulships were made through the “Idomas” at the Kontos dairy confectionery, will be revived by the event of KEDIP-Patras Carnival “In the Kontos the Idomas…” which will take place on Thursday, February 29 at 19.00 at “Espero” .
The representation of the “Eidomata” in a traditional and satirical way will take place with the protagonists of the groom, the bride and the “soys” in a theatrical action by the Theater Group of the Cultural Association of Zavlani, while members of the Dance Department of the Cultural Organization of the Municipality of Patreon, dressed in clothes from the 1950s, they will dance the dances that were heard at that time: tango, waltz, foxtrot, not excluding the chamikas…
This will be followed by the necessary treats with a sweet taste and in a carnival style.
According to tradition, in the famous old pastry shop with the marble tables, famous for its creams, milk pies, rice puddings, puff pastry and loukumades, which was located in Corinth at its junction with George I Square, below Espero , the “news” were held, that is, the meetings in order to “proceed” the consulates. There, in the heart of Patras, people from the villages of the wider area, who did not have the opportunity to meet at home, met and got to know each other, while in the interior the couples of the time made their own dates.
