A programme of interactive shows is touring six homes for the elderly.
It is organised by a group at the Malta Drama Centre concerned with social work for the vulnerable, including immigrants, people in rehabilitation and the elderly.
It features two tutors of Spanish dance and two graduate, mature students who have studied musical theatre as their special discipline. The show is then extended to involve interaction with residents who are encouraged to move to music and sing songs they love.
The aim is to encourage mental and emotional involvement in the elderly through alternative therapy.
The programme is organised under the auspices of the Lifelong Learning Directorate and assisted by the Ministry of Education and the Family and the ParliamentarySecretariat for the Elderly.
