Approximately 1920. A theatre company that is constantly travelling from one destination to another; every actor carrying suitcases and trunks filled to the brim with costumes, props and junk. The decision to stage this wonderful story is lost in the memories: however, everyone knows that every evening, as they tell the story, they will find themselves rejoicing, suffering, swearing vengeance, and in the end, in front of Lady Death, perishing. For many years now…And for who knows how many more.
To fully enjoy these moments, participate and prepare yourselves for the performance by getting a Spectator’s Kit (Kit dello Spettatore) available on the website www.operaeducation.org!
