Maar allemaal minder leuk.

The Greece's plans for Marina's Satti staging had been revealed, here's what they said about it:

It was confirmed that the Greece's stage performance will be filmed in a single camera shot. A camera will follow Marina Satti and the dancers on stage.

In the last chorus of the song more distant shots will be used, showing the stage and the Malmö Arena audience.

The LED screen will also be used, we will see Marina Satti on it, along with some song lyrics. The graphics are designed by NMR.

Some part of horeography will stay the same as we have seen in the music video. But the bridge part will be inspired by a Greek culture, so expect a traditional Greek circular dance including a dance with handkerchiefs

11:50 CEST: Rehearsal 3: 🇬🇷 Greece – Marina Satti – ZARI

It’s Greece’s turn to rehearse now, marking their 50th year at Eurovision. Their entry this year is singer-songwriter Marina Satti with the song ZARI - a fusion of Greek, Arabic and Balkan influences that manages to sound both traditional and super-contemporary.

In terms of staging, Marina brings the same sass and attitude we saw in the official video - the kilt has been swapped for a shiny purple puffball skirt, paired with a white top and black heeled boots. Marina has four backing dancers – three male, one female - who join Marina to fuse precision street dance moves with traditional elements. There’s lots of close-up camerawork – Marina really connects with the TV audience, and it looks great live on stage too.

In terms of graphics, there's loads of colour and energy – with neon pink floating ZARI graphics on the cubes, and grafitti-style visuals on the LED wall bringing that same urban vibe we saw in the official video.

It’s also another track this year with deep bass, so the TA TA TA really vibrates through the floor of the arena. Officially a banger.

More on Greece's Staging (Spoilers)

Reposting with sources and more info:

* Starts off as a TIK TOK video with a 9:16 ratio
* Neon pink will be a very dominant color on stage with word/ prompts appearing on the led screens
* There is a part where everyone is lying down and the floor changes color, this is where the "greek" element of the staging will come into play. The drop cam will be used here as well as when the dancers surround marina and Marina dances in the middle.
* The leds will be heavily featured and so will the boxes, which will sympolize the dices (zari)
* The ring you see Marina wearing is not actually a ring. It's a camer, like a GoPro, so the audience and ofc the dancers will be heavily involved.
* Marina gets the handkerchiefs from her boots, which will be the only part of the outfir that is not in danger to be changed.
* The MA RI NA part of the song apparently is trully great to witness live
* The audiences will be a huge part of the song's outro
* The notes they gave to the producers were very minor.
