For parentsOne Night in Paradise: Greek Comedy TheatreLoris Loizidis's comedy launches its tour of Cyprus at the Latsia Municipal Theatre. At the gates of Heaven, St Peter is taking down a new arrival's details — until the Devil himself turns up to claim his share, prompting a riotous flashback through the night before, full of recognisably Cypriot characters, quick wit and plenty of banter with the audience. Beneath the laughs lies a warm-hearted message about kindness, forgiveness and the age-old tussle between good and evil. Starring Loris Loizidis, Sofoklis Kaskavounis, Michalis Sofokleous and company; ninety minutes in Greek, curtain up at 20:30, tickets from €18.27 Nov – 3 Jan20:30Nicosia, Latsia Municipal TheatreAges 15+€from €18
Make autumn magicalSee Halloween events →Theatre & showsEktos Ylis Reloaded (Off Curriculum)One of the most talked-about Greek productions of recent years comes to Cyprus for two nights only. In Kostas Leimonis's Ektos Ylis Reloaded (Off Curriculum), an MP and former minister prepares to make his final speech to Parliament on the night of a confidence vote — a reckoning, a confession and a long-overdue apology rolled into one. Gerasimos Skiadaresis takes the lead under Konstantina Nikolaidi's direction, and the show, now in its fifth year of sell-out runs, has played the Greek Parliament, Brussels, Canada and the European Parliament. In Nicosia it plays the Municipal Theatre. Seventy minutes without an interval, performed in Greek; starts at 21:00, tickets from €15.Sat, 28 Nov9pmNicosia, Nicosia Municipal TheatreAges 12+€from €15
