The Cyprus Theatre Organisation presents a unique production for preschoolers. Stage 018’s second show this season, Come on! Come on!, by the acclaimed and much-loved creator of children’s theatre, Xenia Kalogeropoulou, opens at Theatro Apothikes, directed by Lena Kasiou.
Unable to sleep, Mia tosses and turns, and as she looks around her bedroom, it suddenly transforms into a world full of toys and games, hidden adventures, and marvellous surprises. Her imagination brings every corner of the room to life, filling it with sound, objects, and a sense of wonder. Suddenly, something bright and colourful appears in her room. What could it be? This is a playful tale about a child making friends with the moon, her innocent curiosity leading to the thrill of exploration and the joy of discovery.
Lena Kasiou brings all her directorial flair and creativity to her debut at Thoc, with a touching, wordless story that allows young audiences to engage with and process feelings and emotions. Boasting an exceptional creative team, the production combines physical performance with a highly original set design, enhanced by video projections, offering children a captivating visual experience that sparks engagement, interaction, and the use of perceptual skills.
