Since its first staging in 1974, the masterpiece by Garinei and Giovannini debuts at the Arena di Verona on Saturday, October 10.
The musical comedy by Pietro Garinei and Sandro Giovannini, written with Jaja Fiastri, with music composed by Armando Trovajoli and staged by Marco Simeoli, features Giovanni Scifoni in the role of Don Silvestro and Lorella Cuccarini in the role of Consolazione, along with a tribute to Enzo Garinei who will be present vocally with La Voce di Lassù.
The cast also includes Marco Simeoli as the Mayor, Sofia Panizzi as Clementina, Francesco Zaccaro as Toto, and Francesca Nunzi as Ortensia, along with an ensemble of twenty performers and dancers.
The story, loosely inspired by “After me the deluge” by David Forrest, tells the adventures of Don Silvestro, the parish priest of a mountain village, who one day receives an unexpected phone call: God himself tasks him with building a new ark to face the imminent second universal flood. Don Silvestro, helped by the villagers, succeeds in his undertaking, despite the greedy mayor Crispino who will try to hinder him in every way and the arrival of Consolazione, a woman of easy virtue, who will put the men of the village to the test.
When the ark is finished, at the time of boarding, a cardinal sent from Rome intervenes and convinces the villagers not to follow Don Silvestro, whom he claims dishonors the robe he wears. The flood begins, and only Don Silvestro and Clementina, the young daughter of the mayor hopelessly in love with him, are on the ark. The water begins to submerge the villagers; Don Silvestro decides to abandon the ark, a safe refuge, to share that terrible moment with his faithful. An infinite gesture of love. Then God, seeing his plan fail, halts the flood and sets the rainbow. It closes on a festively adorned table celebrating the return to serenity blessed by God.
An unmissable event that brings together two excellences of Italian culture: a national-level musical comedy and one of the most prestigious stages in the world.
