The event

«Ogni favola è un Giallo» is a children's show that blends the world of fairy tales with a detective investigation. The story is set in a vacation resort, where the Grand Hotel «Ma chi è» is home to real characters, cartoon figures and puppets from classic and modern fairy tales.

Pinocchio's first day of work as the hotel bellhop becomes tangled up in a theft: during the Seven Dwarfs' sauna session, a mysterious individual takes the «cuore di diamanti» ring from the jewelry basket kept in their room. A surreal and comic investigation begins, in which the children take an active part by questioning the characters staying at the hotel.

The show is performed in Italian. There are two performances: Saturday, November 14 at 4:00 p.m. and Sunday, November 15 at 5:30 p.m.

Where it takes place: Emporio delle Arti

Emporio delle Arti, at via Giacomo Costamagna 42 in Municipio VII, across from the historic Villa Lais, was founded in 2007 out of the work of the cultural association L'Albero di Minerva and the cooperative Moiselle Le Blanc. It hosts workshops and recreational centers for all ages, along with a theater program for children and adults.

More family plans the same weekend include Ode alla vita at Teatro Torlonia on November 14 and 15, 2026, and the kids season at Centrale Preneste Teatro, while fairy tales on stage continue with Un teatro da favola at Teatro Manzoni.
