Scaramuccia

At Théâtre National de Nice "La Cuisine", the Italian company Stivalaccio Teatro brings Scaramuccia to life with a vibrant production inspired by the Commedia dell’arte tradition. Set in 1645 on the strategic island of Crete during the Venetian Empire, the story unfolds through a web of mistaken identities, duels, and lively improvisations. As alliances shift and passions ignite, the characters navigate love, jealousy, and conflict against a Mediterranean backdrop. With dynamic physical performances and classic masks, this show celebrates the enduring spirit and humor of an art form that bridges centuries and cultures. Suitable for audiences aged 10 and up.
