The annual bilingual street theatre takes place in the village of Għargħur! Take a look at what’s happening on the day: * 4.30pm – make your way to the centre of the village of Għargħur; a stage (design suggesting a collision of eras) takes over the pjazza & frames a cast of 70-strong actors from DWAL GODDA for the ritualistic colourful street play of POEZIJA SIEKTA (Silent Poem). ** 6pm – the 1st act is concluded with the commencement of the traditional Good Friday procession as it exits the church; relax, stroll around the Għargħur streets & visit the numerous exhibitions opening at this time: *** 8pm – make your back to Għargħur’s main square: for the 2nd act of POEZIJA SIEKTA, the actors who formed part of the procession resume their role on stage while ‘breathing life’ into the statues. **** 9pm – the audience will decide whether the cross will transform itself from being a mere prop, sign or ritual to become the tool for Jesus’ crucifixion, leading to ... 9.30pm, the end?
