"The Party of My Life": Eleni Rantou Returns to Cyprus
A Heartfelt Theatrical Journey of Memory and Healing Returns to Cyprus for Six Performances
Hellenic Bank proudly presents this year’s theatrical event: The Party of My Life ... a story about all our wounds ... featuring Eleni Rantou. A captivating story of memory and “amnesia,” this bittersweet Life Party has been stirring the Athenian theater scene for two seasons, with packed houses and enthusiastic audiences praising Rantou’s performance.
Inspired by Every Brilliant Thing by Duncan Macmillan and Jonny Donahoe, Eleni Rantou unfolds fifty years of her character’s "wounds" with humor and disarming honesty, against the backdrop of modern Greece's challenges. In a quest to find 5,000 reasons why life is worth living, the play becomes a desperate cry of hope in our post-COVID world—a tender confession and a true-to-life story that has captivated both audiences and critics, who have hailed it as the "play of the year."
In a career-defining role, Eleni Rantou delivers a deeply emotional and impactful performance, supported by a team of exceptional collaborators. Accompanying Rantou live on stage are the String Demons, Konstantinos and Lydia Boudouni, adding a melodic depth to the performance.
Directed by the talented Anestis Azas, whose flawless production has earned rave reviews for its clever insights and thoughtful execution. Following 300 sold-out performances and numerous theater awards over the past two years in Athens, the #1 play returns to Cyprus for just six performances—an opportunity for those who missed it or those eager to experience its magic again.
