Due to its sold out performances, the stand up comedy show “EACH TO HIS OWN” is returning for four more evenings, every Friday in February 2016, at 21:30, at the Michael Cacoyannis Foundation. Ira Katsouda and Andreas Paspatis, two comedians with a long history in stand up comedy become a couple and tell it how it is… Each to his own in an avant-garde performance about the eternal battle of the sexes and the little things of day to day life.

 

To begin with, the audience gets to know each comedian and their stories, separately. Following this, the comedy duo appears on stage to perform together. Ira and Andreas come up against one another, confess to one another and explore the most personal and misunderstood areas of their relationship – of every relationship – and thus the audience become a part of the most hilarious case of couple therapy of the year! The stand up comedy show “EACH TO HIS OWN” was first presented at the Michael Cacoyannis Foundation in October 2015 and since then has travelled to Thessaloniki, to the Athenaeum Theatre, to Patras, Crete and other cities in Greece, to great success and sold out venues every time!
