Theatre gems for the new season

Four new productions make up the programme of Cyprus’ main state theatre for the first half of the new season that runs until the beginning of January 2010. The Cyprus Theatre Organisation (ThOC) is the leading stage on the island and has been presenting top Cypriot and foreign productions in Cyprus and abroad. This year the season kicks off on October 11 with a children’s play that has been a major success in many countries: Jeff Brumbeau’s The Quiltmaker's Gift Sunday morning performances. Three more premieres take place in November: Brian Clark’s Whose life is it anyway?, David Eldridge’s Festen and Ovid’s adaptation of Metamorphosis.
