Alessandro Baricco guides the audience through a fresh and surprising reinterpretation of Giuseppe Verdi’s La Traviata. The show breaks with traditional opera conventions: there is no longer any separation between the stage and the audience, spectators become an integral part of the story, toasting and singing together alongside the performers, experiencing Violetta’s story as if at a village festival. A brand-new format, halfway between a public square concert, storytelling theatre and a community celebration, which brings opera back to its most popular, vibrant and shared roots.
Transport to and from the venue must be via Mittelfest bus service.
