Fans of the great filmmaker Federico Fellini can book tickets
to see a ballet adaptation of La Strada featuring the original
soundtrack next month.
The 1954 movie starring Anthony Quinn and Giulietta Masina was highly acclaimed on
its release and won the Academy Award for best foreign language film two years
later.
Nina Rota provided the music for the picture and it is her composition that will be
performed, with the Teatro di San Carlo Corps de Ballet interpreting the action on
stage.
The dark drama is an example of Italian neorealism filmmaking, following the
fortunes of a naive woman sold by her mother to a performance troupe led by an often
cruel strongman.
Rota's score is innovatively introduced into the mis-en-scene through certain
characters playing instruments such as violins and trumpets.
The music has been adapted by choreographer Mario Pistoni to create a stunning yet
tragic ballet production.
It will be performed at 21:00 local time on July 8th, 9th and 10th. Tickets cost €20
(£17.60).
Cinema buffs can browse a generous selection of Naples hotels on LateRooms.com, including the Grand Hotel Parkers Naples.
