L'altra metà del cielo

New Teatro alla Scala Production

From 31 March to 13 April 2012

Running Time: 1 hour 20 minutes intermissions included

Notes on the performancesOpen: The new La Scala production for Season 2011/2012 caters to a younger audience, receptive to a less conventional fusion of styles. Drawing on his passion for dance and his sensitive outlook on the female world, Italian singer-songwriter Vasco Rossi’s tale pictures woman, from adolescence to adulthood, in the guise of three characters encompassing every nuance of the female universe featured in his songs over the course of his long career.

To the backing of a new interpretation of his songs, rewritten and arranged for orchestra, the Ballet Company will dance under the guidance of Martha Clarke, award-winning and multidisciplinary director and choreographer, noted for her ironic and unconventional approach and her receptivity to the fusion of artistic languages.
