The Malta Entertainment Industry and Arts Association (MEIA) is pleased to announce the appointment of Malcolm Galea as Chair of its Theatre Subcommittee. A leading figure in Malta’s theatre scene, Malcolm brings over twenty years of full-time professional experience and international recognition, including the Brighton Fringe Awards for Outstanding Theatre and Best Newcomer, as well as the Off-West End Award for Best New Musical.

Malcolm, who previously served as Co-Chair of the MEIA Theatre Subcommittee, aims to strengthen the Subcommittee with a dedicated and proactive membership, inviting existing members to reapply based on commitment and availability. Under his leadership, members will focus on policy and funding, best practices and industry standards, collaboration and innovation, professional development and training, contracts, and the work of production companies and venues.

MEIA believes Malcolm’s experience, leadership, and deep knowledge of Malta’s theatre sector make him an excellent addition as Chair. His guidance is expected to strengthen opportunities for local theatre artists and elevate Malta’s theatre scene both nationally and internationally.

As Chair, Malcolm will continue to advocate for theatre professionals, support artistic development, and reinforce MEIA’s representation of the theatre sector within Malta’s broader cultural landscape.
