Conductor Michele De Luca
Dramaturgy and Acting Paolo Migone
Massimo Kids Orchestra
Comedian Paolo Migone explains that classical music is not something incomprehensible or particularly strange, but is first and foremost music.
So why not let ourselves be moved and involved by the music of the great composers? Migone guides us into a universe unknown to many, and he does it in his own way, with absolute originality, lots of irony and without any prejudice or pretentious snobbery. The show is engaging, entertaining, enriched by slides, and in the narration four of the most incredible musicians in the history of music are associated with the four elements: Vivaldi with the water, Bach with the earth, Mozart with the air, Beethoven with the fire, as if to emphasise the indispensability of music for humanity.

The plot
Each of us encounters difficulties in daily life. Finding a solution requires a will to take action and move forward, because immobility is never the way out. In this show, Dante’s journey in the Divine Comedy represents the stages of life from adolescence to adulthood. We will thus have the Dark Forest, i.e., the approach to adolescence, Hell, i.e., the period of total rebellion and confusion, we will pass through the arduous Purgatory, i.e., the phase of challenge, learning, and growth, to end up in Paradise, a place of serenity given by awareness.
The participants, in the role of the Supreme Poet, will have the opportunity to embark on both a physical and emotional journey through the halls of the theater, exploring the theatre, the people it contains and themselves at the same time.
Spoken parts of the performance are in Italian; a basic understanding of the language is adviced.
This is an events for school groups. In case seats are available to the general audience, they will be on sale on the same day of performance at the box-office.
