Tickets range between €10 and €25. Apocalesque! Fringe theatre and variety show with an 'apocalyptic burlesque' theme at City Lights, St John's Street, Valletta at 20:00. It's post apocalyptic Malta. The enormous weight of the construction boom has caused the island to collapse. The only ones that remain are the filthy dregs of society. Culture, however, is booming with sinister priests, voodoo goddesses, feline slaves and flesh eating virgins luring victims into their beautifully twisted cabaret.
