In conjunction with the Rossini Opera Festival (ROF), a yearly international music festival held in August in Pesaro, the birthplace of Gioachino Rossini (1792-1868), and on the occasion of 150th anniversary of the composer’s death, the IIC will host an outdoor screening of Il Signor Bruschino (96 mins).
From the 2012 ROF, the innovative theatre company Teatro Sotterraneo has transferred Rossini’s 1813 light-hearted one-act operatic farce to a modern-day theme park, complete with popcorn stand and balloons.
Sung in Italian with English subtitles.
