The Last Nickel
A Jane Shepard short play, the last in a series presented by The Gozo Creative Club, will be held at Uncle Ted’s Tavern, Sannat, Gozo. Shepard’s dramas are intense and often funny explorations that tackle and challenge notions of femininity and female sexuality. The Gozo Creative Club will, as in previous performances, dissolve the barrier between performer and audience. Show starts at 7:30pm and is for adults only. Ticket outlets: Uncle Ted’s Tavern, Sannat, Gozo (21563460, 79463933, 79565100); XT Communication, Tigrija Palazz, Victoria, Gozo (21555744) and Gozo Creative Theatre Club (79303101).
