MADC to stage ‘Hamlet’ at Msida Bastion Historic Garden

The theatre company moves its annual Shakespeare summer production from San Anton to Floriana garden

MADC is once again staging an outdoor Shakespeare play this summer – Hamlet – but at a new venue.

As ongoing renovation works have ruled out the company’s traditional setting of San Anton Gardens in Attard, the 2026 production will perform instead among the fortified walls and greenery of Msida Bastion Historic Garden in Floriana.

The producers believe the setting’s history and atmosphere suit the tale of grief, suspicion and revenge at the heart of one of theatre’s most enduring works.
