Prose and dance at the Galli Theatre

Theatre season 2024/2025

from 8 November 2024 to 25 April 2025
Theatre

One of the strands running through the 2024_25 prose and dance programme of the Galli Theatre in Rimini are the great classics of literature and some of the most complex and timeless myths of western culture, declined through contemporary languages and themes. A journey between the fantastic and the unknown, between history and  the complexity of everyday life, accompanied by famous artists and performers such as Lella Costa, Ferzan Ozpetek, Emma Dante, Maddalena Crippa, Silvio Orlando, Alessandro Haber, Fabrizio Gifuni, Sergio Rubini, Ascanio Celestini, Elena Bucci and established authors and directors such as Alessandro Serra, Peter Stein and Arturo Cirillo.
Twenty-six titles are on the programme, including subscription shows (divided into the usual ABC and D rounds), non-subscription proposals and special dance events.
Once again this season there will be space for the great musical with 'Fame' (Saranno Famosi), a legendary and timeless phenomenon of pop culture, brought to the stage by the Roma City Musical company (1 and 2 February) with a cast of first-rate artists such as Barbara Cola, Garrison Rochelle, Lorenza Mario, Stefano Bontempi with choreography by Luciano Cannito. There will also be the traditional rendez-ous with Operetta and the Compagnia Corrado Abbati, which this year proposes a new edition of one of its best-loved repertoire titles, La vedova allegra (14 December).
It will be up to dance to inaugurate the Season on Friday 8 November with an international excellence: Parsons Dance, the American contemporary dance company among the most successful in the world, loved by audiences of all ages for the vitality of its choreographies that seem to defy the force of gravity, will return to Italy with its new tour, Balance of Power, which in a little over a month will touch down in Rimini and some of the main national theatres. The route that the Season dedicates to dance will then see the return to the Galli of the Centro Coreografico Nazionale - Aterballetto (9 February) with a brand new triptych signed by choreographers Crystal Pite, Philippe Kratz and Diego Tornelli.
The Season's side projects also include two special appointments: a classic ballet repertoire such as 'Swan Lake' (7 December), directed by Arturo Cannistrà and interpreted by a cast of 100 young male and female dancers and a collective performance with Riminese artists and theatre companies staging 'Zitti tutti!' (29 March), a theatrical monologue written by Raffaello Baldini in 1993.
