19/09 Press conference at the Teatro Manzoni: STRALUSC arrives in theatre!

The Teatro Manzoni opens the 2024/2025 theatrical season with a rich program of events. The prose section will feature great performers and directors such as Umberto Orsini, Franco Branciaroli, Vincenzo Salemme and Massimo Popolizio, bringing to the stage works ranging from Molière to Eduardo De Filippo to Neil Simon.
