The Nobel Prize-winning writer Dario Fo applies his inventive genius to Rossini's comic opera in its premiere DVD release. Recorded in 2005 under the musical direction of Maurizio Barbacini, Fo's production brings fresh vitality and colour to the story of Lisetta, and of her father's attempts to find a husband for her through an advertisement in the newspaper La Gazzetta.

Reviews

"...a tour de force of acrobatic silliness and barbed social satire. Of the cast, which included the inimitable BrunoPraticò and the lovely Cinzia Forte...it can only be said that it is difficult to imagine the piece sung or acted better." (The Financial Times)

"Lively and hilarious...Pulsating pace, Charleston looks and silent movie aesthetics in a series of gags...Fo takesthe opportunity to satirise the world of advertising and the hypocrisy of the powerful." (El Pais)

"La Gazzetta by Rossini has been reborn in thisproduction that has the distinctive stamp of Fo, who has been able to handle with strength the Rossinian chaoswithout neglecting - and here his major virtue - the music." (El Periodico de Catalunya)

"La Gazzetta was a visionary work, and it is still revolutionary in the actual 'age of disinformation'." (Dario Fo)
