EXHIBITIONS 5 OCTOBER – NOVEMBER 2 Parallel Existences In his long-awaited new exhibition, celebrated pho- tographer Alex Attard cre- ates alternative identities for historical, centuries-old documents that were severe- ly damaged during the war, and which have since formed part of the Notarial Archives in Valletta. These never seen before, mangled and distort- ed volumes have lain static, buried in boxes, out of sight, for decades – their reason for being, gone. Parallel Exist- ences will be on show at Val- letta Contemporary in Val- letta between 5 October and 2 November 2018. THEATRE SEPTEMBER 28-29 Sfumat Sfumat recounts the story of Alex, in the words and actions of those around him, particu- latly his father Charles, and his daughter Maria. Alex never ap- pears on the play, with the au- dience forming their own opin- ion based on what the other characters reveal. e produc- tion, held at the Salesian ea- tre, also marks ten years of the Salesian Worship Team. OCTOBER 4-14 US/THEM The animated narrative, 'US/ THEM', which sees brutal ter- rorism coinciding with child- like innocence, is coming to Strait Street. On 1 September 2004 – the first day of school, or Russian 'Knowledge Day' – a group of Chechen terrorists stormed into a school in the small town of Beslan, taking 1,200 hostages. e siege last- ed three days. Hostages were confined within the walls of the school's gymnasium. e mas- sacre left 334 dead, including 186 children. OCTOBER 5-14 The Jew of Malta This October, the MADC and Teatru Manoel are producing Christopher Marlowe's classic 1590s play e Jew of Malta. Director Chris Gatt describes the play as a "Dark, hilarious and subversive tragi-comedy. e Jew of Malta takes no pris- oners as Marlowe cynically dissects a world where politics, greed and the three Mediterra- nean religions - Catholic, Mus- lim, and Jewish - clash; skew- ering all three as he weaves a fast-paced story at once tragic, farcical, and absurd."
