Dear KIT Friends,
Tosca and the two downstairs is ready to open... we are entering the theater on Monday the 17th and on March 20: OPENING NIGHT!
Bringing Tosca back is a big excitement and again, one more challenge. Yet, we love what we do, and I have to tell you that having people thanking us for the programs we present it's very rewarding and energetic.
To keep doing what we do, we need all the help possible.
This is why we ask you all to keep contributing and supporting KIT. We have an indiegogo campaign going on until the end of Tosca. Those funds will allow to cover some expenses in case we won't have sold out every night... So, SUPPORT AND:
GRAZIE for your contribution and support!!! See you at the theater... make sure to say hi after the show!
CIAO,
Laura&KIT

Tosca e le altre due by Franca Valeri shares the 19th century setting and events of the opera, but refracts them through two memorable women characters who share them from the outside. The torture's screams and scuffles are overheard from upstairs by the wife of the torturer and the female doorkeeper of Palazzo Farnese in Rome, where the interrogation is taking place. The play is a wry and humorous character study of these two women, outsiders, who are accidentally close to the passions and politics of the story.
