Synopsis

Il Signor Bruschino

---

Rossini's one-act opera Il Signor Bruschino was premiered at the Teatro di San Moise in Venice in 1813. As performed at the Rossini Opera Festival in Pesaro, the work is a gem, and the New York Times cheered the "clever production" conceived by the young Florentine theater collective Teatro Sotteraneo, one of the most innovative experimental groups in Italy. The action takes place in a 21st-century Rossini theme park, a kind of Rossinian Disneyland, with fireworks of mistaken identities, exhilarating music, intricate ensemble pieces, verbal puns and gags – a hint of Rossini's later masterpieces!
