The event

The show is written and performed by Mirko Baldassarre, an art historian. It offers a journey through two of the most extraordinary eras in the history of Western art, the Renaissance and the Baroque, contrasting reason with feeling and harmony with wonder.

The telling draws on images, music, narration and video projections. The two Rome evenings are Tuesday, May 11 and Wednesday, May 12, 2027.

Where it takes place: Teatro Ghione

The Ghione has a single 468-seat hall, 335 in the stalls and 133 in the gallery. Since 1980, when the actress Ileana Ghione bought the hall, and its reopening under the new name in 1982, the programming has given considerable space to chamber music.

The theater is in the Aurelio district, near rione Borgo; the page is Teatro Ghione and the area is described in the guide to Prati and Borgo.
