We arrived just in time for the last show of the day which was at 2pm.
Student tickets cost 6.50 Euro each and I must say it was worth every euro cent!
After purchasing tickets in the gift shop we were escorted to the theatre where we sat in comfy seats in front of a wide screen and selected one of 15 available languages for the commentary.
The show began and after a few minutes (once the large group of elderly Italian tourists had worked out how to use the headphones and had settled down) everyone was captivated by the show's entertaining presentation of Malta's unique and varied history.
7000 years of history was somehow squeezed into 45 minutes without feeling rushed.
Walking back to the bus station up Republic Street I looked at the city with new eyes as I tried to digest the sheer volume of history and tried to imagine the stories the streets could tell...
