Wenzu u Rożi (Melbourne, 2023)
Wenzu enjoys a drink (or six!) at the local tavern, catching up on the news and spending time with his mates after a hard day’s work. Meanwhile, his wife Rożi is at home, attending to the daily chores. Will the wine wash away Wenzu’s cares or add to them on his return home?
Wenzu u Rożi – praspura wara l-oħra (antics galore) is an original production based on the well-loved short stories of George Zammit. It is presented in the style of a traditional Maltese “teatrin” (a comic theatrical play). Join us on the 19th February 2023 to meet our lead characters, a loving yet frequently bickering elderly couple who live in a remote Maltese village together with their neighbours and friends. Set in the early 1920s, this light-hearted comedy reminds us of the bitter-sweet nostalgia of days gone by.
