Zoo goes Male vs Female

admin — Thu, 08 Jul 2010 12:03:22 +0000

Zoo goes Male vs Female was a continuous struggle between both sexes. Sketches were a continious power struggle between the two species. Although we have to admit that the women attending surely knew how to shout and support the only lady in the group. Their voices were much stronger this time. Zoo decided to portray normal circumstances that happen in every day life and the people attending cheered and laughed heartily as they could see how funny their behaviour could be. The show ended up a bit messy with cakes and panna thrown at the four actors.

Zoo goes Movies

Zoo goes Movies was another dream come true. The four of us are film fans and when we brainstormed for the show we could not get to agree as each and every one of us had his favourite films. However we ended up with a very good mix of parodies from very well known films. This time the opening number was a sure hit as we saw Chrysander and Owen dancing impeccably to ‘Dirty Dancing’.

Zoo goes 5

Zoo goes 5 This show was totally special for us, in the planning, in the writing, and in performing. In every way possible as we went through the first five years we performed and we remembered how we and the show grew together. The show was fast, new and old characters mingled perfectly together for each sketch. The last number of the show was a perfect success as every night people ended up in a standing ovation singing and clapping to the final song.

Zoo goes Cabaret

Zoo goes Cabaret was a different show from the others as it was very spectacular with dances, music and costumes, just as a Cabaret Show entails. It was very challenging for the four as they had to rehearse moves and singing (if you can call that singing), besides the lines and acting. But it was surely fun. It is nice to see people enjoy your songs even if you are not there to give a concert, and the best part is when the audience laugh at the songs because of the lines altered to accomodate the situation. At least we think that people laugh because of the lines…..or not???? Whatever! the good thing is that the people laugh.

Zoo goes Medieval

Zoo goes Medieval was surely a hit this year. The positive feedback for the show was amazing, leaving yet again the Zoo team with a greater feat to produce a different and even better show after this. It was a success because present issues were part of medieval situations, such as the inquisition, the chastity belt, the burning of a witch amongst other situations that truly were part of our history. This show is special for the team as it was the first Zoo show to be held at the City Theatre.

Zoo goes School Musical

Zoo goes School Musical was a very modern show portraying popular musicals at that time and also school incidents that some time or another happened to all. This show introduced a number of new characters which were instantly loved such as the strict teacher, which we surely happened to have some time or another in our schooldays. The show was very spectacular as there were a lot of musical inserts and the last song ended the show in style. Just the week before there was a continuous debate on the water and electricity bills and so the popular song Mamma Mia was translated perfectly in Maltese – “Mamma Mia…kif ghola il-kont tad-dawl….” People enthusiastically shouted and sang to the song!

Zoo goes Holidays

Zoo goes Holidays was definately another pleasant show which hundreds of people loved attending. The whole setup was amazing. The show was held in the National Park in Ta Qali. The four decided to embark on a journey visiting various countries. The sketches were pretty hilarious especially the sketch portraying market vendors in Tunisia, an ordinary couple trying to hide their child at the airport not to pay the aeroplane ticket, amongst more. The show ended when the four dedicated a song to the newly elected leader of the Opposition party.

Homepage History

Each of them comes from a separate theatrical background. The boys met each other when they worked for a local TV station. And so Chrysander, Owen, and Daniel started working together. Together they agreed to introduce that kind of satirical programme which was missing from our local television and theatre alike. So they introduced ’Zinners’ which overnight became a success on one of the local television stations. Then they became FOUR when they met Claire who was having her own television show. Encouraged by the programme’s success they agreed to perform a live satirical show in one of our local theatres.

Little did they expect the turnout of the audience to be so overwhelming, jam-packing the theatre to its full capacity. After that first show they continued to produce more live shows and the audience more than multiplied making the Zoo shows one of the most popular cultural events on our islands.

After that, Zoo Media and Entertainment Company Ltd came into being and they joined all their forces and abilities to start producing TV programmes, covering different genres such as educational, kids, documentaries and more satirical programmes. Besides TV they render other services such as animation for kids’ parties, tailor-made shows and alternative entertainment such as murder mysteries, film production during events, and much more.

Chrysander and Daniel are presenting twice a week this satiricial programme in which they tackle various topics. Topics featuring various characteristics we see in people. Tall people, fat people, loud, shy people and loads of others. In every programme they interview a well known personality who is known for that particular trait.
