Official presentation of Una festa bellissima

«Perché se la festa è finita ma io sono qui… ballo.»

Text from the official Cultura Roma Capitale page (service translation: “Because if the party is over but I am here… I dance.”), source

On stage three friends build a party made of balloons, laughter, hugs and small discoveries. It is a cheerful party full of movement, but like all parties it ends at some point. What is left, then? The body, the breath and the desire to dance a little longer.

«Una festa bellissima» invites children and families to celebrate the present, to look at one another and to recognize themselves in the here and now. The presentation text describes it as a weave of play, friendship, body and time.

Compagnia Arione de Falco was founded in 2013 out of the wish of Annalisa Arione and Dario Eduardo de Falco to tell stories to children, teenagers and families, with relationships, empathy and lightness as the driving force. It also works in theater education, with workshops in improvisation, storytelling and theater for different ages. On stage are Annalisa Arione, Alberto Branca and Dario de Falco, with the support of Teatro Koreja. The music is by Enrico Messina, the stage movement by Marcos Rangel Koslowski and the costumes by Giulia Rossi.

The event is part of SomministrArte 2026 and is among the projects supported by the notice «Lo spettacolo dal vivo fuori dal Centro» (“Live performance outside the Center”), promoted by Roma Capitale with the Ministry of Culture and in collaboration with SIAE.
