About this event
For seven consecutive evenings Garbatella's main square becomes an open-air theatre where the audience brings its own chair, cushion or blanket. Curated by Alessia Esposito, the programme mixes contemporary theatre, circus, narration and site-specific work; it opens with Gioia Salvatori and baroque singer Maurizio Rippa unpicking opera arias alongside young singers from the Teatro dell'Opera's Fabbrica programme.
Why we picked it
Free, high-quality theatre in one of Rome's most characterful 1920s garden-city neighbourhoods, squarely inside the priority window.
Free entry
Ingresso gratuito — free admission for all seven evenings.
