It-Teatru tal-Miskin: near-perfect

November 19, 2022 by Ramona Depares Leave a Comment

it-teatru-tal-miskin

It-Teatru tal-Miskin turns out to be quite the difficult production to review. Don’t be too generous, artists tell me when reading my reviews. We like critique, nothing is perfect. Tell us what we can improve. Truth is, It-Teatru tal-Miskin gets pretty damn close to perfection. It’s easy to understand how, in under three months, it’s already on its third (or is it fourth?) … [Read more...] about It-Teatru tal-Miskin: near-perfect

Spring Awakening Adaptation

October 26, 2022 by Ramona Depares Leave a Comment

spring-awakening-spazju-kreattiv

Photo: Darrin Zammit-Lupi Spring Awakening is one of those plays that somehow, despite being written in the 19th-century, remains as relevant as ever. I was curious to see what the producers, Adrian Buckle and the Malta Drama Centre, would do with the current production showing at Spazju Kreattiv, especially as this is not the first time the script is being tackled in … [Read more...] about Spring Awakening Adaptation

La Cage Aux Folles won six Tony Awards when it was originally produced in 1983, so you don't really need me to push the point home.

I might biased, as I've been following the rehearsal process at Theatre Next Door for the past few weeks and … [Read more...] about 5 reasons to watch La Cage Aux Folles at Teatru Manoel

Ta’ Fuqha Senduqha – a vicious cycle

October 15, 2022 by Ramona Depares Leave a Comment

Michela Farrugia and Charles Sammut in Ta' Fuqha Senduqha. Photo: Elisa von Brockdorff. After attending the opening night of Ta' Fuqha Senduqha at Spazju Kreattiv, my overwhelming feeling on leaving theatre was that this is a play with huge potential. Written by Andre Mangion, the narrative follows the downward spiral of a young woman who finds herself in a vulnerable … [Read more...] about Ta’ Fuqha Senduqha – a vicious cycle

Ma Kuraġġ u Wliedha: bold

September 4, 2022 by Ramona Depares Leave a Comment

ma-kuraġġ-u-wliedha

Photo: Elisa von Brockdorff Ma Kuraġġ u Wliedha is not the kind of piece that many theatre companies are willing to put up nowadays. On paper, the Bertolt Brecht epic is far from an easy watch, a sprawling 2.5-hour account of the titular matriarch's experience of The Thirty Years War, which ravaged Europe in the 17th century. The narrative arc is a simple one. Ma Kuraġġ … [Read more...] about Ma Kuraġġ u Wliedha: bold
