We regularly produce shows featuring some of Britain's top female comedians for our long standing commercial partner, the Londa Hotel in Limassol, Cyprus, which has kindly provided a fabulous luxury stay for the winners of the Funny Women Awards for the last four years and will continue to do so this year.
Last to appear were 2009 Funny Women finalists, Domestic Goddi, who presented a night of hilarious comedy on Saturday 24th April. Comprising of BBC Comedy Award winner Helen O'Brien, and Stage Award nominee Genevieve Swallow, the talented duo performed their unique sketches which take an ironic look at coping with 21st Century living, gathering inspiration from a variety of television shows, adverts and stereotypes.
Funny Women has produced comedy shows at the Londa Hotel for both guests and local clientele for the last four years. The events also raise funds for the Cyprus Anticancer Society.
The show on 24th April was kindly supported by M.Y. Bunkers, a Limassol-based marine fuel services company that provides unique fuel management services to the international shipping industry.
For details about forthcoming shows, please contact Mr George Ellinas, tel: (+357) 25 865 555. The shows start at 8.30 pm in the Alpha Omega Ballroom.
Tickets cost €10.00 and all proceeds are donated to the Cyprus Anticancer Society, www.anticancersociety.org.cy.
Jochen Niemann, General Manager of the Londa comments, “We’re delighted that we have been able to attract some fantastic female acts to Cyprus to perform at the Londa. Our award-winning contemporary boutique hotel with its lively outlets is the perfect place for this type of entertainment, and our exclusive partnership with Funny Women means that the Londa is the only place in Cyprus to see some of the best female acts on the comedy scene.”
Other Cyprus favourites include our very own Suzy Bennett, winner of the Funny Women Awards in 2006 and the brilliant, award winning, Shazia Mirza. Their shows at the Londa were an immediate sell-out and demand for tickets is always high.
We work in collaboration with the Giggling Guiri, Spain’s leading live comedy brand with clubs in Barcelona and Madrid to bring over acts, produce shows and present workshops.
