History is indeed repeating itself. The premiere (not the Cafe this time) of the ‘Oliver Twist’ production was a ‘sell-out’, thanks again to the Prime Minister’s direct involvement. The scheduled performances have been heavily booked by the power-hungry Labour trolls, and they are now fighting among themselves to secure the best position in the front row, just in case the ‘Artful Dodger’ makes a quick exit. 

This  undignified response has further emboldened the already bloated ego  of would-be impresario (now turned desperate scavenger of memorials) Jason, who, it is believed, is already planning to stage two further productions, viz: ‘Gaslight’ (courtesy of Shanghai Electric) and ‘Florence Nightingale’ (courtesy of Vitals).

Joseph will play an important role in both productions, which will have a Panama setting and will be entrusted to ‘wonder-kid’ bashful Konrad. 

The script will be in the hands of mastermind (for the wrong reasons) Keith, in view of his extensive ‘offshore’ connections. So Malta will soon be brimming with culture.

Meanwhile, the Oliver Twist production has already received several nominations for the ‘You’ve Got Talent’ Academy Awards. Joseph is a natural ‘Artful Dodger’ for the best actor award, but he may yet be pipped at the post by conniving Keith. The ‘China Town’ award for supporting actor should go to devious Konrad.

This year, the award ceremony is being held on Mount Pilatus, generously funded by Azerbaijni interests. 

In all probability, the Azerbaijan President will preside over the ceremony, and he may invite our President, whom he met in Baku on her visit, following closely upon the secretive foray by the Panama gang. Possibly, the Chinese President may also attend. No doubt he will take the opportunity to lecture our President on the theme of ‘President for life’.

As the occasion warrants, the award ceremony will be compered by ‘boot-licking’ Martin, before he rides into oblivion.
