From Parisian atmospheres to the pompous and tragic suggestions of the Dolce Vita felliniana: this is the journey that will make Violetta, the famous heroine of La Traviata, for the public of Caracalla, where from tomorrow to July 20, the new Directed by the director Verenzo Lorenzo Mariani directed by Maestro Yves Abel.
The show, which will open the summer opera season of the Opera di Roma, seems tailor-made for Caracalla, combining quality and popularity without forgetting the pleasure of entertainment: a perfect track then , not only to amuse and amaze an audience of 4500 seats, occupied largely by tourists, but also to ensure the success achieved in recent years.
From 2013 to today Caracalla "has more than triple its revenues," says Superintendent Carlo Fuortes, "rising from 1.5 million euros to more than 5 million euros with which we hope to complete this season. "Mariani's Traviata will not fail to surprise the audience: deserves forays into the Dolce Vita, through badogies that the director finds in the" beautiful world but desperate "represented in the film Fellini
"The story of Violetta is terrible cruel: the protagonist tries to live a full and free life, but loses," says the director today, "that is why my Traviata s & # 39; Inspired by Fellini's film, both in his tragic feelings and in his spectacular setting, it is a popular work, which is often trivialized: on the contrary, it is a gold mine. to represent the deepest feelings of man. "
And with this Traviata Mariani, who at the Barbière de Sevilla in 2014 succumbed to the temptation to give the public a Caracalla postcard in a Hollywood show, also accepts an "impossible challenge": that of the dialogue with the Roman ruins, exploiting their charm and integrating them with images and projections.
"It is useless to compete with Caracalla, we must seek a productive cohabitation," he says, emphasizing the courage of the Opera di Roma, "a theater that continues to produce and strongly contrasts with the other Italian theaters in which production is abandoned. because of economic and structural difficulties. It is essential to renew, and the public has rewarded this courage.
On stage, the audience will see a young and talented double cast, in which Kristina Mkhitaryan and Valentina Varriale shine (the latter trained at the Fabbrica Young Artist Program of the Rome Opera) as Violetta, and Alessandro Scotto di Luzio and Giulio Pelligra in that of Alfredo. "These young singers are not only good, but also believable," he says, "I am a perfect vehicle to tell the story of an overflowing love between two boys, Violetta and Alfredo"
In the show costumes are by Silvia Aymonino, scenes from Alessandro Camera, lights by Roberto Venturi, with videos by Fabio Iaquone and Luca Attili, and choreographic movements by Luciano Cannito.
