Tosca

This is an exclusive made in Italy idea by Piccolo Lirico – Teatro Flaiano, combining both tradition and new technologies, which results in a high quality product that the audience will surely appreciate. It has been chosen by The Independent (April 15th 2007): The top ten must-do, must-see in Italy, and the New York Times wrote for a big reportage on Italian productions of melodramas that the performance are: " charming, touching".

This is also due to the fact that the representations don't last more than 90/100 minutes and are extremely pleasant thanks to the structure of the cosy theatre - found in the historic center and very near to the Pantheon.

Due to the current experience and the interest shown by the audience: a very usable and appreciable product. Analyze, read over, decompose in order then to recompose some masterpieces, adding - instead of subtracting – other suggestions, deriving from literature and other disciplines of the show, this is the formula of the Piccola Lirica: to highlight the strong feelings of the works, the contrasts and all the elements that made it such a popular kind. The tradition must be safeguarded all the way because this operation challenges every convention.

Challenging conventions consists in representing the classical masterpieces, traditionally showed in the opera houses, in a historical theatre, having them executed by the best singers and musicians selected in competitions: artists with a future rather than a past; conceptually interpreting through dynamic scenes and light-designs, places and feelings, giving back to the public all the emotion - amplified just by the close contact with the scene.

The Gold Ticket is for the first 4 rows and includes an aperitif before the show. The spectators with Gold Tickets are required to show up about 30 minutes before the start time.
