Scheduled on Wednesday 20 March

9:45 am - San Girolamo theater - Aida e il bambino che sognava l'opera. A show by the Compagnia teatroLinguaggii, by Sandro Fabiani and Fabrizio Bartolucci.
Telling Aida to the children also offers the opportunity to tell Verdi: Giuseppe Fortunino Francesco born in the small town of Roncole. The child who dreamed of music, the enfan prodige that played the organ by ear in the church of the village, which traveled miles on foot to go to music class, which was not admitted to the conservatory. The shy little boy with words that looked out of love at the door of the family tavern to listen to a walking violin player.

To lead us into the work, it will be an unusual character: a custodian. Not the custodian of a theater, nor that of a house, a garden or a stable, as the Master had so many in his estates. A keeper of a curious country cemetery! Do not worry, here there are no ghosts, no skeletons. This is a cemetery that sings and plays!

Yes, because we know that in the works of greens all or almost all die. Even in Aida everything ends in a tomb. But the music of greens and immortal and between irony and a bit 'of poetry here is that the small cemetery is transformed, covered with sand, pyramids rise, and comes to life the story of Radames and Aida, beautiful, beautiful to die!

During the days of the festival, also many appointments with workshops for families and children, readings, meetings. The complete program on the official website of the festival www.luccateatrofestival.it
