Who are Pik and Zi?
Pik and zi are two 10 yr old daughters living Malta in 2014. They have been close friends since
were small, always went to the same school and spend a lot of time at each others houses. As their name implies ,
these are two characters who are always ready for an adventure and not for the first time they challenge authority.
What topics will PikuŻi be discussing?
The themes chosen were fueled by Pikużi own name and each letter initials a word
referring to the new society in which children live today. These include:
Maltese traditions
Individuality
Creativity
Time
Integration
What are the objectives of this project?
The aim of this project is that exposes children to the theater while tackling Maltese
sensitive issues that children are facing . Furthermore, we would not only expect children move into the theater, but
we move them as well. PIKuZI will be limited to a small audience so that the project is flexible
enough to move from one room to another. The aim is to create the possibility that
theater is more accessible to a much broader child audience.
