Malcolm co-created and wrote the online audio-narrarive experience It Happened Here: Stella. This takes the form of a mobile phone game that is played in real life by exploring the historic town of Senglea. As players are guided from one location to another, more of Stella's story is revealed - depending on which character they choose to follow.

Directed by Philip Leone-Ganado and designed by David Chircop at Mighty Boards, the project was created in conjunction with Science in the City, Arts Council Malta, the Malta Chamber of Scientists  and the Senglea Local Council. The app can be downloaded for free.

Malcolm's solo show 0.0031% (Plastic & Chicken Bones) won the Voice Mag Best Newcomer Award at the latest edition of the Brighton Fringe Festival. Reviews from the Brighton run can be read below.
