Info Massimo Community Lab – Il duello alcomico March 15 – 26 2019 | Sala Onu Adapted from Giovanni Paisiello’s Il duello comico Original music and musical adaptations of Alberto Maniaci Dramaturgy and texts by Alberto Cavallotti Conductor Alberto Maniaci Director Alberto Cavallotti Scene designs Roberto Lo Sciuto Teatro Massimo Orchestra with Conservatorio Scarlatti di Palermo Programme Programme We are in the new restaurant that Totò, a chef who made a career in Paris, has recently opened in Palermo and is the new attraction of the city’s nightlife. It is precisely from “Chez Totò” that Tancredi, a young son of the well-known Palermo, accompanies Solange, called Chérie, a young Parisian fashion designer who has moved to the city and whom he is in love with. Once at the restaurant, they are welcomed by Toto who is an old friend of Tancredi but also of Calogero, another suitor of Chérie who comes too for a drink. Then begins a tangle of funny situations, misunderstandings and gags managed by Totò, his two waiters Simone and Rosalia and Cettina, girlfriend abandoned by Caologero. A game of couples in which Toto, a bit’ istrione and a little’ Deus ex machina, disfa e riannoda nuovi amori e vecchie amicizie. Tickets Full 10 euro Low price 4 euro
