"André Agius 'is one to watch' "

Fergus Morgan, The Stage
“André Agius has created a production that is, not surprisingly, action-packed and fast-paced. He brings out the humour, the conflicts and the tragedy. The cast respond to this with sincerity and the real-life issues become increasingly absorbing."

Richard Beck, Broadway Baby
“Impromptu was a gloriously funny piece of work and André kept the tone light and the physicality fun and farcical. A gorgeous confection of a show.”

Rosie Kellagher, National Theatre of Scotland - The Impromptu at Impromptu at Òran Mór
"This deterioration of the civilised front is central to the play, and Agius nails it. His direction includes very simple staging that cleverly placed the focus entirely on the actors. The effect is of four tigers, barely restrained in a cage. Delicious, brutal and 100% effective satire."

The Times of Malta, God of Carnage 2024.
"André Agius’ direction is clearly paramount. He has created a powerful production, extremely provocative in its nature but is that not the point of art?"

Mikey J Tucker, Frances Fowler Poetry
“I can’t say I have any critical points for this production. The actors were spectacular, the translation was beautiful and the direction was excellent. [...] Truly a masterpiece.”

★★★★★
Tpespis Art Reviews, The Hot House 2018
“It’s wonderful to see a young director like André Agius make such a noteworthy debut under the company’s banner. Skylight is, by no means, a safe or easy choice for a first-time director. This is the kind of theatre Malta desperately needs."

Times of Malta, Skylight

Just back from London 🇬🇧

There I worked with some incredible people and spent time in some really great rooms, had some meetings, caught up with some friends, saw some stuff, saw VERY cool stuff (See: Wes Anderson Archives), biked on many a Limebi

Some days you're up on your feet leading a room, other days you're a small window on a zoom call between two countries having a discussion about how best to adapt a classical play, and make it contemporary.

That's theatre-making, baby ❤️

After we took this photo, I turned to Graham Norton and told him "it's a lifelong dream of mine to sit on your sofa" and he replied:

"Work Harder" 🤣

To which I replied: "I literally just directed Ian McKellen" pointin

So how did I spend my 32nd birthday? 🥳

I've been taking sometime to breathe & reflect about the wham-bam start to 2026, and somewhere in that start I also celebrated my birthday. But this year, it felt quite unique.

Well.. I spent it directing

We're starting 2026 with a BIG bang 💣..

I am beyond thrilled to be Co-Director on Sir Ian McKellen's one-man show, Equinox. ❤️

Written beautifully by Laurie Slade and originally conceived by the extraordinary Sean Mathias at Pitlochry Festival The

Where do I even begin?

Before I even arrived at MADC, I had already heard so much about you - your presence, your stature, the deep respect people held for you. And then I had the privilege of working across from you - twice. Memories that
