A Unique Bilingual Event… for all the family
What do these have in common: the bomb that fell on the Mosta Rotunda exactly 75 years ago, the
seven deadly sins, the ingredients that produce the scents in our churches & Holy Week exhibitions,
the constant news of war, corruption …?
All this will be placed in a theatrical context on Sunday, 9th April, Palm Sunday, where the village of
Gharghur will be transformed into a theatrical space by the DWAL GODDA theatre troupe, in an
event which combines a script which is original every year together with the traditional Good Friday
procession. This year, the event has been given the title of RADAM (debris).
4.30pm – a group of over 70 actors commence the 1st act of RADAM on a huge stage set up
purposely on Gharghur's church parvis;
6pm – the 1st act is concluded with commencement of the traditional Good Friday procession as it
leaves the church to mingle amongst the streets and audience of Gharghur;
8pm – the actors that also formed part of the procession resume their role on stage while bringing
to a halt the statutes and ‘breathing life’ into them during the 2nd act of RADAM.
9pm – This leads to the crucifixion of Jesus right in the Gharghur 'pjazza' and… the end?
The play is bilingual, so that the English-speaking audience can follow.
