A PUCCINI TRILOGY

operas for childhood

Kinkaleri developed a TRILOGY dedicated to childhood with three performances adapting operas by Giacomo Puccini: Nessun Dorma, Butterfly, I Love You TOSCA.
The three projects – based on the tradition of the musical drama operas, and inventing simple and original stage settings – offer the young audiences new readabilities, without abandoning the emotional intensities of the original works. The elements of these revisitations are the conservation of the remarkable theatrical structure in the nineteenth century and the staging inventions in the contemporary languages that Kinkaleri developed and reached in their artistic career. The result consists of the realization of three operas for children that turn out to be a field of attraction and interest for a wider audience.
The works – performed by an opera singer and an actor/dancer – provide also grounds for reflection about theatre as a place of invention, inspiring educational and creative ideas to be developed at school or with parents.

The performances are presented both individually and as a trilogy.
