Talking about Opera – Aleko / Pagliacci
This event is in Italian.
The art of storytelling is made up of intertwined threads that open up the enchantment of listening.
Beatrice Monroy tell us the story of the operas Aleko and Pagliacci with Giuseppe Cutino and Stefania Blandeburgo.
Tickets (3 euros) are available at the box-office and online.
You can access the Sala Onu through the stairs located in the stage door area (on the right side of the main entrance, close to Via Pignatelli Aragona). An accessible pathway, with no steps and the elevator, is also available (ask the staff for guidance).
About
The project
Beatrice Monroy – with readings by Stefania Blandeburgo, Gigi Borruso, Rinaldo Clementi, Giuseppe Cutino, Consuelo Lupo, and Sabrina Petyx – recounts the plots of the Operas staged at the Teatro Massimo to the audience, as well as the historical and cultural references on which the librettists based their work.
Our aim is to bring to the audience the extraordinary stories that inspired the Masters to compose their masterpieces.

Sullo spettacolo
Presentazione
La coperta di Ruth (Ruth’s Blanket) stages the drama of the Shoah with strong emotions and profound reflections on the themes of racial discrimination and human suffering.
The story is set during the period of anti-Semitism and describes the human spirit of those who, prisoners and victims of Nazism, lived part of their lives between life and death.
The theater company also includes actors with disabilities, whose presence and talent are a concrete example that limitations can be overcome and diversity can become a strength.
The proceeds from the evening will be used to support the association’s activities aimed at children with disabilities.
