Certain words are better left unsaid because you know…….they’re rude. But growing up you often find yourself saying them when you shouldn’t. Whether it’s out of curiosity, to look cool with your schoolmates or simply because you lose control you find yourself repeating them. And this opens up a new mysterious world. A world that you were never exposed to at school, much less at home. But what happens when your child comes back from school and starts uttering these mysterious words?

‘Pastażuni – Tikber u Titnitten’ is a stand-up comedy in Maltese intended for adults. It portrays a guy who’s looking back at his upbringing and sexual experiences, from the very first rude words at school to his first relationships as an adult. He’s perfectly aware he learned things the wrong way, but now that he is a father himself, how can he teach his son properly?

Written and directed by Joseph Galea, aided by unpublished poems by Trevor Żahra, and original records by Ċikku l-Poplu (aka Alex Vella Gregory), this will be an entertaining show for adults only ( 18+).

This project builds on ‘Pastażuni’, a project commissioned by Notte Bianca in 2022, based on an idea by Antoine Farrugia
