Carnival
9–
20 February 2007
Venice
l
It will be a popular, widely spread
and amusing Carnival. It will be
an event involving the whole town
and its citizens, as well as hundreds
of thousands of guests.
The show offered to such a variegated
multitude will be direct, immediate
and emotional. Music, ballet, theatre,
circus and all the arts dear to
people's hearts, will be part of
an event whose roots delve many
centuries into the past.
In 2007 it will be
the Tricentenary of our writer and
playwright Carlo Goldoni, one of
the most representative artists
in our Venetian literary and theatrical
tradition. And more than anyone
else, he will represent the Carnival's
"folklore", its popularity,
its being "everybody's event",
no one excluded
The leading thread
of the coming Carnival took inspiration
from an artcle in his memoirs. Goldoni
and his company will travel virtually
around the world to meet artists
from every country.
It will be a mosaic of arts, a masquerade,
made up of so many pieces, so many
different, diversified, amusing
themes.
