15 maltatoday | WEDNESDAY • 10 JULY 2019 LISTINGS WHAT'S ON Theatre UNTIL JULY 12 Pope Joan This July Teatru Malta to- gether with the Malta Interna- tional Arts Festival will be pre- senting the highly anticipated Summer production Pope Joan at the Mdina Ditch on the 6,7,9,10,11 and 12th.

JULY 20-21 Serata b'4 Four extracts from the works of four Maltese authors will be presented by third-year stu- dents at the University of Mal- ta with direction by Dominic Said and Anthony Ellul. JULY 18 Liam Gallagher Live in Malta If you had to make an equa- tion of all the elements that made the early Oasis singles so apocalyptically good - i.e. huge waves of guitar hooks + melo- dy you can't shake for…ever + thunderous rhythm + LIAM GALLAGHER'S VOICE deliv- ering an unbelievably catchy chorus - then Wall Of Glass fits in the lineage perfectly. It's hard to recall a time he's sung better - it's like hearing him for the first time again, the same yearning menace that claimed a million hearts by the end of Supersonic's first chorus. His voice is definitely on point.
