XILLALU

Is it a fight? Is it a game? It’s a circus show! Okay. Get this. Bystanders in Valletta are sitting at their usual Saturday night spot, but suddenly they spot two guys they’ve never seen before. A fight is brewing, a punch is thrown! But wait, suddenly one of the guys is standing on the shoulders of the other. XILALLU! Exactly.

International circus performers from the European contemporary circus sphere will be joining forces with local theatre professionals and practitioners with a flair for the extra-ordinary to create a series of street circus skits like no-other in Valletta and around the island. This travelling circus project will combine circus and social skills tackling current social issues. With Aġenzija Żagħżagħ as our main partner, the teenage community is our audience, and the streets are our stage.

In partnership with Aġenzija Żgħażagħ, Notte Bianca, and Arts Council Malta.
