The One Shoe: Interactive Children's Theatre for TELETHON in Nicosia

Two performances of the interactive children's theatre show «The One Shoe» take place in Nicosia, Cyprus on Sunday 8 November 2026, as part of the TELETHON 2026 charity events. The show is held at the Amphitheatre of the Cyprus Institute of Neurology and Genetics and is aimed at children aged 3 to 10 years, with a running time of 50 minutes.

Through a tender and imaginative story, the show takes young audiences and their families into a world of acceptance, friendship and difference — communicating messages of love, teamwork and the power of collaboration through humour, music and song.

The story follows a lonely shoe living inside an old drawer full of shoes, feeling out of place because it has no pair. Along the way it meets other "single" and different objects — a sock, a glove, an earring — each carrying their own unique story. Through warm dialogue and plenty of laughter, children discover that difference is strength and friendship is born through acceptance.

The show is written and performed by Maria Kanther, directed and performed by Georgia Davveta. Both creators invite children to participate actively as the story unfolds.

All proceeds from the performances go to TELETHON Cyprus, supporting the work of the Cyprus Institute of Neurology and Genetics and the Cyprus Association of Myopathy Patients.
