XENI is our masterclass by theatre-design, stage-art, or stage management professionals to up-and- coming theatre makers interested in working behind the scenes. This year, XENI will be focusing on costume design with Irish costume designer Joan O’Clery.

The 5 day workshop will cover the process of costume design, primarily focusing on costume for stage. Using examples from Joan’s work and Teatru Malta’s extensive wardrobe, the attendees will learn the ins and outs of creating a successful costume design from script and conceptualisation to the final designs. Participants shall look into the many aspects of the design process and the communication of ideas, as well as investigate elements related to production such as pattern drafting and fitting.
