CANTINA 11 - 13 May 2018 Ta’ Qali
c. Laica
The visionary Laika theatre group produce strange and sensory performances based on food, taste and smell. Together with Valletta 2018, Laika are co-producing Cantina, a performance that engages with Bertolt Brecht’s modern classic, Saint Joan of the Stockyards. Laika’s imaginative team brings their signature theatrical style to play throughout this project, offering an expressive performance that directly engages with its audience; Cantina forgoes a literal adaptation of Brecht’s modern classic in favour of an inspired, interdisciplinary vision that uses food to look at class, capitalism and the struggles associated with them. Rooted in solidarity, this multi-faceted project also includes workshops designed to explore the diverse food values and customs that our communities hold to heart.

CANTINA 11 - 13 ta’ Mejju 2018 Ta’ Qali
Il-grupp teatrali viżjonarju Laika jipproduċi prestazzjonijiet strambi u sensorji bbażati fuq l-ikel, it-togħma u x-xamm. Flimkien ma’ Valletta 2018 Laika qegħdin jikkoproduċu Cantina, prestazzjoni li hija marbuta mad-dramm klassiku modern ta’ Bertold Brecht, Saint Joan of the Stockyards. It-tim immaġinattiv ta’ Laika jġib l-istil teatriku tiegħu f’dan il-proġett, u joffri prestazzjoni espressiva li tinvolvi direttament
lill-udjenza tagħha; Cantina tirrinunzja adattazzjoni litterali tal-letteratura klassika moderna ta’ Brecht favur viżjoni ispirata u interdixxiplinari li tuża l-ikel biex tħares lejn il-klassi, il-kapitaliżmu u l-ġlidiet assoċjati magħhom. Bl-għeruq tiegħu fis-solidarjetà, dan il-proġett multidimensjonali jinkludi wkoll workshops imfassla sabiex jesploraw il-valuri u drawwiet tal-ikel li għandhom għal qalbhom il-komunitajiet tagħna.
