One Night Only - Desperately Seeking Souvlaki - a piano lounge comedy experience - Villa Simone, Houghton Johannesburg

ABOUT

A South African Hellenic stand-up comedy feast. An intimate evening of comedy with cocktails and Greek Gyros! A 75 min show that takes the audience on a journey on what it’s like to be Costa in this world. From hilarious gags about his upbringing to his dating escapades, Costa gets vulnerable showing not only the flaws in himself but in his community and South Africa. Such honesty, sharp wit and cheekiness mean no one is safe and many parallels can be drawn between all communities in SA and this Greek/Hellenic condition that Costa highlights. The show is directed by Cypriot South African, Renos Spanoudes;one of South Africa’s top theatre directors. Ticket price covers entrance and comedy - food and cocktails not included.

Costa has performed the show selling out in 2023 over 10 times in Sandton Mandela Theatre, The Redhill arts festival, Cape Town and in Athens Greece - with two shows now in Cyprus on 8th and 10th March.
