EN: The public is invited to join the actors for a theatrical production (in Maltese) inspired by Maltese fantasy characters that will take place inside the halls of the Inquisitor's Palace in Birgu. The public is welcomed by 'It-Tork tat-Taraġ" who will take us around the palace to tell us a terrifying story. 'Il-Belliegħa' that lives in the well is found in one of the courtyards. Inside the cells of the palace we find the Witch, condemned to death by the inquisitor. We hear the bellowing of 'Il-Waħx il-Baqar' and the 'Gawgaw' dragging behind him a gate with nails. This theatrical production combines all these elements together and presents them as an informative and entertaining theatrical production.

This performance will be in Maltese.

In collaboration with Heritage Malta.
