Teatru Manoel announces A Dream is A Wish, the annual TOI TOI Easter Concert which promises a night of unforgettable live music for the whole family to enjoy.
Organised by TOI TOI, Teatru Manoel’s Learning and Participation programme, attendees of all ages will have the chance to enjoy all the music from their favourite family films.
A Dream is A Wish will take audiences on a journey through time with the development of music written for the big and little screen. It will feature music by Alan Menken, Pasek & Paul, Phil Collins, Lin Manuel Miranda and many more for a great Easter Treat.
The annual TOI TOI Easter Concert first began in 2015 in a collaboration between Teatru Manoel and local legends Big Band Brothers. It aims to provide a night of high-quality live music for audiences aged four and up.
This year’s edition, called A Dream is A Wish, is also one of the events in the MaltaBiennale.art 2024 programme.
This year’s concert features music by The Palace String Orchestra under the baton of dynamic young conductor Ryan Paul Abela and Artistic and Administrative Manager Stefania Grech Vella, alongside direction and vocal arrangements by Kate Fenech Field, and performances by Tezara Saliba, Francesco Nicodeme, Michaela Agius, Clara Sciberras, Noel Zarb, Paolo Micallef, Bettina Zammit, and some very, very special surprise guests.
There have been three Main Stage shows on Easter Sunday produced by TOI TOI since 2021, with previous editions covering the development of genres such as big band, pop, and musical theatre. This year, TOI TOI is adding an extra show on Easter Saturday too, so that even more families can experience the magic of A Dream is A Wish!
A Dream is A Wish is packed full of singalong moments for all members of the audience to enjoy. You’ll be whisked from castles to fjords, islands to jungles and a diversion through a chocolate factory thrown in for good measure!
