“YORKOS THE COMICALLY CYPRIOT” — A STAND-UP SHOW THAT asks the question "If Cyprus is so small, why is our drama so big? After years of trying to explain Cyprus to the rest of the world (and to Cypriots themselves), comedian Yorkos Kyriakou finally decided to turn national confusion into a comedy tour. His new English-speaking solo show, “Yorkos the Comically Cypriot”, will hit Nicosia, Larnaka, Paphos, and Limassol this December — proving once and for all that being Cypriot is not a nationality... it’s a full-time personality disorder.
Yorkos dives into everything from the art of Tsiatista, the lore of the Halloumi, the multiplicity of the Shisto, to the ever-changing socioecomical landscape of Cyprus that forces us to keep up or stay with our moms.
“It’s a show about identity,” Yorkos says, “but mostly about why I am proud to be Cypriot but only from a safe distance."
The show combines Cypriot absurdity, Mediterranean storytelling, and international-level stand-up, all delivered with Yorkos’ trademark mix of charm, irony, and passive-aggressive patriotism. Whether you’re a Cypriot, an expat, or just someone who’s been yelled at by a Cypriot driver, you’ll finally understand why this tiny island thinks it invented both democracy and halloumi — and is equally responsible for neither.
