Musical comedies families

In 2014, after a workshop in London dedicated to the production of musicals, Meri Malaguti decided to experiment with this language also within our facility.

BSMT of Bologna, the most important musical school in Italy, follows us for the coaching part and during the castings for the selection of performers.

Raffaele Latagliata, director with experience within the Compagnia della Rancia, joined the creative team led by Pino Costalunga for several years.

The dancers of the corps de ballet of the Verona Arena, Elisa Cipriani and Luca Condello, sign the choreographies.

Among the longest-running musicals we point out Merry Christmas Santa Claus, distributed during the Christmas period. A musical comedy to relive the spirit of Christmas and its atmosphere through a story that can entertain and excite young and old.

In 2018, in view of Gianni Rodari’s centenary, we set up Favole on the phone, a delicate show that pays tribute to the famous writer. The music was composed for us by Maestro Valentino Corvino.

Our most recent production is Gruffalò, music for children and not only based on the bestseller by Julia Donaldson. This is the first completely made in Italy production taken from this text. In fact, we have obtained the rights from the Macmillan Children’s Books publishing house thanks to the experience gained in almost forty years of activity.

Much applauded, even if no longer in distribution, are Il Magico Zecchino d’oro made with the Antoniano of Bologna to pay homage to the 60 years of the famous singing competition and Santa Claus and the potion of 13 herbs was produced in collaboration with Ricola .

Music CDs can be purchased by the public during reruns, in the box office of the Stimate Theater and soon in the e-commerce section.

The songs are also available on Spotify.
