One-man Show Rent Control at ATHENS2018

Evan Zes in Rent Control

For Anglophile theatregoers starved of English productions, EllinikoTheatro’s repertoire of plays and performances in English with Greek surtitles to mark its 40th anniversary is a welcome addition to your cultural agenda.

WHAT: Rent Control, written and performed by Evan Zes, tells the true tale of a struggling actor living in New York. Short on cash, Evan finds a way to pursue his dream by transforming his rent-controlled apartment into an Airbnb. Taking place at Theatre 104 for EllinikoTheatro’s ATHENS2018 festival, this Off-Broadway one-man show features an enthusiastic Zes playing the part of 30 different characters. Zes will lead an open discussion with the audience following the performances and hold a master class on Physical Characterisation and Clowning during the festival. The performance, which deservingly won the “Overall Excellence Award” at the New York International Fringe Festival, will include Greek subtitles.

WHEN: June 21, 22, 23, 29 and 30 at 9 p.m.

WHERE: Theatre 104
