Teachers to get sneak peek of this year's ŻiguŻajg festival plans
Heads of schools, teachers and cultural mentors have the opportunity to view an advanced preview of the 8th edition of the ŻiguŻajg International Arts Festival for Children and Young People this Thursday.
The exclusive preview will follow an information meeting planned for educators at the Spazju Kreattiv Cinema, St James Cavalier on October 4. Educators will also be given early access to tickets to festival events, which will begin on November 16 and run until November 25.
“This year’s programme forms part of the Valletta 2018 celebrations and is comprised of 27 projects, including internationally-acclaimed shows from Canada, Belgium, Spain, Italy, France, UK, Ireland, Norway and Sweden, as well as co-productions with public cultural organisations, and commissions by Maltese creatives,” explained ŻiguŻajg festival director Daniel Azzopardi.
“The events include a touring music parade show in schools, promenade theatre for teens, a children’s nativity opera, a contemporary circus show and several outdoor interactive installations that do not require any booking and can be experienced at the schools’ convenience. But more will be announced soon!”
