It-Teatru tal-Miskin/Il-Każin tal-Imqarbin

I've had the privilege of working with Luke Saydon over the past few years—as a friend, mentor, dramaturge, and editor. His two musicals, It-Teatru tal-Miskin (2022) and Il-Każin tal-Imqarbin (2024), are both outstanding works of theatre. The first is a queer coming-of-age story that explores society’s deep-seated fear of the other, while the second delves into the first HIV cases in Malta during the 1980s. I served as the dramaturge for both productions and also worked as the editor for the published script of It-Teatru tal-Miskin.
