The last performance of Stultifera Navis (The Ship of Fools), the new work Gruppi Għall-Inkontri tal-Bniedem created for International Festival of the Arts, will be presented at Buskett this evening.

The 15th century book Stultifera Navis is the starting point for this poetic, musical performance directed by John Schranz and rehearsed in Malta by four Gruppi actors and in Athens by the Greek company Fractals, together with violinist Antoine Frendo and accordionist Albert Garzia.

The work abounds in memorable visual moments, boisterous scenes and intimate duos, trios, quartets and solos which drew lengthy applauses from the audiences of its first two nights.

Booking is open at St James Cavalier, both at the box-office and online. The performance starts at 9pm.

Visitors should consult www.actionbase-studio.org for a map and video regarding how and when to arrive at Gruppi's beautifully sited Buskett ActionBase Studio.
