Taħdita Teatru 2018/19

19 April 2019
Teatru Malta and Spazju Kreattiv team up for another season of TAĦDITA TEATRU, which aims to listen, archive, document, and debate contemporary theatre in Malta. Developed around and focused on both the Teatru Malta and the Spazju Kreattiv theatre programmes, the series will create a space for engagement and community discussion between creatives and the public to applaud, share and network. Each event forming part of this series aims to mould the experience of both viewer and maker into a culturally sustainable body of documentation, which will focus on exploration and critical analysis.

Boulevard
Teatru Malta in co-production with Teatru Manoel are proudly collaborating with ŻfinMalta to commemorate 25 years since the death of beloved Maltese playwright Francis Ebejer.
