ŻiguŻajg Festival 2019
15 – 24 November
The 9th edition of ŻiguŻajg Festival returns with a fantastic line-up of no less than twenty-one projects and nine creative forms! The selection has a nice balance of new Maltese works together with some of the best touring shows, including five commissions by foremost local artists, five co-productions with national public cultural organisations, and no less than eleven international projects from around the globe!
The growing success of the Festival in the past years has culminated with our recent launch of the ŻiguŻajg Season at Spazju Kreattiv, consisting of a year-long programme of activities for schools, children and their families. Keeping with our ethos to put arts for children at the heart of the national creative ecology, this introduction will ensure that apart from the thousands who attend the Festival in November, we will be providing other quality creative initiatives for audiences to enjoy more regularly.
The 2019 Festival programme initiatives vary from a brand new promenade music theatre show which will also tour schools, to a daring contemporary circus act, award-winning films, an opera with loads of humour, a readaptation of an iconic literature classic, and a number of outdoor happenings. This year’s edition, featuring a strong environmental message for young and old, promises to enchant children as well as those young at heart.
Internationalisation remains a cornerstone of our work and, with the support of Arts Council Malta, our Delegates Programme has been planned to provide participants with a professional incubator wherein they can fully enjoy the prepared artistic programme, whilst sharing their experiences, and enhancing their knowledge and skills with peers in tailor-made networking and masterclass sessions.
