The stage of Teatro Goldoni comes alive once more with the return of the spectacular show written and directed by Daniele Finzi Pasca, a master of visual poetry. From the creators of Titizé and the renowned Finzi Pasca Company, this production fuses the timeless spirit of Commedia dell’Arte with dazzling stage machinery and a dreamlike aesthetic that redefines contemporary theatre.
In this reimagined Venice, reflections shimmer like secrets, masks veil and unveil truth, and clouds descend in soft blurs, setting the stage for a theater of illusion and emotion. Audiences will witness clowns defy logic, objects levitate, and acrobats dance through the air, amid real and surreal rain, in scenes where the line between dream and reality dissolves.
Traditional characters are broken down and reassembled in a kaleidoscope of identities, while Venice itself becomes a character—its elegance, poetry, and mystery woven into every movement and scene. It is a world where wonder takes many forms: naive, surreal, and unexpectedly ingenious.
Produced by the celebrated Finzi Pasca Company, whose multidisciplinary approach blends theater, circus, dance, music, and film, this performance reflects a profound theatrical philosophy: not just acting, but inhabiting space—an invitation to both performers and audience to experience a Venice they’ve never imagined.
Step into a realm of theatrical enchantment. Venice awaits… behind the mask.
