The narration of a place, of its inhabitants and of its possible future lives, needs to be inspired by the evocative power of myth and legends. The bright image of the democratic Athens is a mix of mythology and reality of historical documents. A new mythology to be founded needs heroes and legends. A cultural project inserting itself in the life of the city, directly involving its community, creates a\u00a0<\/span>new mythology where heroes are among its citizens, deeply immersed in the landscape.<\/p>\n<p>The hero we are referring to is the so-called \u201ccultural hero\u201d, according to anthropologists. He is the one who influences customs and traditions of his people inaugurating new rituals, bringing innovation and establishing a new collective identity.\u00a0\u00a0In this sense, Altofest Malta is a unique opportunity, the act of foundation of a new way of perceiving and living in the relationship between citizens and arts, especially live arts contemporary language.\u00a0As it will originate a new condition, Altofest Malta 2018 will be the beginning of a new epic of the \u201ccultural hero\u201d citizen. He will accept the challenge of blending his\/her everyday life with the revelation of artistic creation. 20 citizens in 4 different areas of the island will be the pioneers of an experience that will leave a cultural heritage.<\/p>\n<p>The schedule for Altofest Malta is as follows:<br \/>\n13th April 2018 \u2013 Opening in Strait Street, Valletta<br \/>\n20 \u2013 22 April 2018 \u2013 Performances in Rabat, Manikata &amp; Majjistral Park<br \/>\n27 \u2013 29 April \u2013 Performances in Qormi, \u0126amrun &amp; Santa Venera<br \/>\n4 \u2013 6 May 2018 \u2013 Performances in \u017bejtun<br \/>\n11 \u2013 13 May 2018 \u2013 Performances in Bormla, Birgu, Valletta, G\u017cira &amp; Sliema<\/p>\n<p>To\u00a0discover what\u2019s in store for Altofest Malta, follow this <a href=\"http:\/\/www.teatringestazione.com\/altofest\/malta\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">link <\/a>for\u00a0more detailed information.\u00a0To book, kindly follow this\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/www.teatringestazione.com\/altofest\/malta\/booking\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">link<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Created\u00a0and organised by\u00a0TeatrInGestAzione with Artistic Direction by A<span style=\"color: #000000;\">nna Gesualdi and Giovanni Trono and with the participation of diverse space doors in Malta.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>If you would like to find out more about Altofest, check out their website for information about past editions in Naples, Italy.
