Epoka @ the valletta waterfront

Last week was a hectic week for the organizers of EPOKA. It's a festival of Maltese traditional food, wine and talent. The Valletta waterfront was the perfect location possible, with all its historical buildings and bastions going back to the 1500's.
Epoka was spread over a period of a week, with local talents and professional artists performing on stage every day till yesterday. I managed to go last wednesday and yesterday.

On wednesday there was a show with two of the best singers in Malta,Renato and Giorgina they performed part of another musical held many years ago called GENSNA. They sang about how Malta was under foreign dominancy and how hard for us it was to get hold of our country again especially during the war. Part of our history. After it was the turn of Greenfields. They play folk songs from the past and are now the experts on Maltese folk.

Yesterday it was the peak of the show. the last day. And they made it unforgettable with the talent of ZOO GOES EPOKA. Zoo are a "gang" of comic trouble makers. Once they're on stage be sure that you'll laugh your soul out.
Zoo managed to combine togrther all aspects of life of the past with today, politics and Knights, past and present, sex and innocence, money and law. Everything which we did. And still do, just in a different way. They are funny, ironically sarcastic :) and RUDE! They are the best!

Iwish i had the camera with me. But i forgot it home. Now, i 'll look for some on the net andpublish them.
