His directorial ability was in v. 1998 when he decided on the stage of the National Theater "Kopshti me dallendyshe". The ironic tone and the sharp satire are exaggerated thanks to the use of an elegant grotesque and graceful acting, where the elegant play of Agim Qirjaq in the role of Harrallambi stood out. Kico Londo is also the director of Mc Donagh's play "The Beautiful Queen" (2001), which gave sarcasm a well-deserved social dimension accompanied by bitter criticism of old docks, closed life and conservative relationships in the family. And in 2001, he staged the drama "Virgin and Death" by Ariel Dorfman, a play which brought shocking parallels with the social-political situation in post-communist Albania devastated by the 1997 riots, as well as the appeal for responsibility and tolerance. "Portrait of Dorian Gray" by O. Wilde, marks the attempt of director Londo to present on stage the tragic duality of man, the fragile relationship between physical and spiritual beauty, between art and life, youth and aging, morality and reality. While through the psychological story of the drama "Pulebardha" by Cehov, the allegory of the murdered Pulebardha (dream) of boredom and sad life in the province, of failed loves was brought. Other achievements of Kico Londo are the plays: "Six years of pregnancy" (2000), a comedy by B. Cikiltropulos; "Be careful…it bites!
