Cafà hopes the story will resonate beyond those familiar with competitive swimming.

“ILMA is about the pressures we carry growing up, the things we notice but don’t say, and what that silence costs us years later.”

For Perini, the measure of its impact is practical: “If this play makes even one person look out for a young person a little more closely, it will have done its job.”

We open tomorrow!

FUN FACT: Did you know that if you google the term 'dynamic duo', more often than not a picture of Jean and Simone comes up? 🤪

ILMA is their newest together, with Simone writing and Jean directing. We asked them both what they hope people take home from it.

🌊 Għal Ethan, l-ilma kien il-post fejn kollox kien taħt kontroll. Darba kien jaf eżatt kif għandu jaqdef fil-ħajja. Issa, hekk kif il-ħajja bdiet tegħrqu, irid jerġa’ jitgħallem kif iżomm f’wiċċ l-ilma.

Dan il-proġett huwa mgħejjun mill-Kunsill Malti għall-Arti u 1Padel, bis-sapport ta’ Fort Fitness, Studio 7 u 242Group.

🌊 For Ethan, water was his second home. He once knew exactly how to navigate life. Now, as life threatens to pull him under, he must learn how to stay afloat all over again.

Ever wondered what it’s like to work with Jean-Marc Cafa on a piece? 6 weeks of mind maps, character works, understanding intentions, jumping on movement mats, and a lot of papers and pictures hung on rehearsal walls.

We promise it all makes sense…at least to us 👀

This season has been absolutely insane, and with ILMA opening this Friday (link in bio 🤪), we can't wait to finally show you what we've been working on 💙

Before that, a few of our own are on stage elsewhere.

, and .connor , 3 of our 1-to-1 acting students, closed Għadna Żgħar at Teatru Manoel's Studio Theatre last night!

, a great friend of the studio, did so many things with us that we've lost count and there's not that much space left in this caption. She's now in Il-Baħar Ikħal Skur at Spazju Kreattiv, with a few more shows to go before it closes on 8 November.

aaaaand coming up, our very own production ILMA opens Friday! Details:
