“Avari”: Commedia dell’Arte comes to life in the cloister of Santa Maria in Organo

From July 14th to 23rd, the magnificent setting of the cloister at the Church of Santa Maria in Organo in Verona hosts Avari, the latest production by Micromega. Written and directed by Matteo Spiazzi, the play is a vibrant tribute to Commedia dell’Arte, revisited through a contemporary lens while honoring the great Goldonian tradition.

The performance unfolds with a brisk pace, turning human vices into a parody that is as grotesque as it is universal. Through iconic masks and skillfully crafted situations, the cast brings popular theater to the stage, speaking directly to every member of the audience and using laughter as a tool for critical reflection on our modern shortcomings. Every detail, from Simone Tessari’s set designs to Roberto Maria Macchi’s masks, contributes to an authentic and refined atmosphere.

This is an invitation to rediscover the magic of theater under the stars in one of the city’s most evocative locations. It is an essential event for those seeking a sophisticated cultural experience, where craftsmanship meets the wit of a brilliant script, leaving room for surprise and the pleasure of an evening spent in excellent company.
