Rallou Manou

Rallou Manou

Rallou Manou (Greek: Ραλλού Μάνου; 1915-1988) was a noted Greek choreographer and modern dancer. She lived on the island of Hydra.

She led the Hellenic Choreodrama, a group that presented dance-dramas based on Ancient Greek literature. Her works were often performed at the Odeon of Herodes Atticus of Athens. She collaborated with the Greek composers Manos Hadjidakis, Mikis Theodorakis, Giorgos Tsangaris, and George Sicilianos. She also collaborated with the Egyptian-born composer Halim El-Dabh, who composed the music for her dance-drama "Doxastiko" (1965).

She was married to Pavlos (Paul) Mylonas (Παύλος Μυλωνάς).
