Teatru Salesjan’s youth theatre company Roaring Voices is producing Shakespeare’s timeless classic, The Merchant of Venice, at Theatre Next Door, in Magħtab, from November 3 to 5 at 7.30pm, with a matinée show on Sunday at 3.30pm.

The audience is invited to experience the drama and intrigue of one of Shakespeare’s most thought-provoking plays that explores themes of justice, mercy and the complexity of human relationships.

In an original twist, this adaptation is set in the 1940s, with the tension of war casting a menacing shadow over Venice, further intensifying the turbulent relationship between Shylock, the Jew and the Christian society.

Reintepreting the compelling story of love, revenge and redemption

The young and talented cast and crew are working tirelessly to bring this masterpiece of exquisite drama and timeless storytelling to life, reinterpreting the compelling story of love, revenge and redemption, and ensuring a performance filled with passion and intensity.
