THEATRE
MCAST
tion with Du' Theatre, has
been in R&D for months, slow-
ly but surely evolving into a
fully fledged production that's
set to hit the stage this coming
January at the Valletta Campus
Theatre. Originally commis-
sioned by the European The-
atre Convention as part of the
Pipelines project, this show
promises to intrigue and spark
your curiosity like a flickering
light in the blackest of nights.
Trikki Trakki Youth Theatre
Festival also returns for its 6th
year running under the helm
of Festival Director Antonella
Axisa at MSpace.
As this MOU signing has
unveiled, Teatru Malta are in
the process of moving to the
MCAST Paola campus for
good. Priding itself in being
the country's leading voca-
tional education and training
institution MCAST is fuelled
by a similar multidisciplinary
ethos that matches that of na-
tional theatre company where-
by within MCAST grounds,
Teatru Malta aim to continue
evolving, and offer even more
opportunities not just to our
collaborating artists but to
MCAST students alike.
This relationship is as sym-
biotic as they come, with Te-
atru Malta now being able to
set up shop on the Paola cam-
pus, make use of MCAST's
well equipped rehearsal rooms
and theatre as well as bring
inspired young students on
board their ever-developing
projects. What will these stu-
dents be doing? Learning of
course, and while doing so
contributing to the theatre
ecosystem one production at a
time, where they will be given
the opportunity to gain first
hand experience working with
local experts in the field of the-
atre, ranging from set building,
costume-design, light-design
and much more. We can't wait
to keep growing and learning
together, one project at a time.
The possibilities are truly
endless, and the future is look-
ing bright. Will you be joining?
