A Different Kind of Heartbreak is a comedy performance featuring Athanasia Kontou at The Cockpit in London on September 15th 2026. Tickets are available for Pay What You Can with prices ranging from £7.50 to £27.50 (including booking fees).
Music & Words: Athanasia Kontou Everyone goes through heartbreak in their 20s but what if you need surgery to fix it? Composer-comedian Athanasia Kontou was enjoying life, partying with her friends and dating casually to avoid heartache, when she found out she already had two holes in her heart. In this one-woman comedy music show, she tells the personal story of her transformative heart surgery. Stories from Athanasia’s diary entries, songs about being in pain, and jokes about anxiety, coalesce into an authentic, hilarious, and dark hour about finding strength and resilience in vulnerability. The show might remind you of Bo Burnham's "Inside", if he was a classically trained composer.
