TENER-A-MENTE OLTRE

This review-in-review takes place in a different place from the stage of the amphitheater, in the charming Laghetto delle Danze. Designed by d’Annunzio with the shape of a violin, as a tribute to Gasparo da Salò, to host choreography shows , and returned to the public in 2013, after an important hydrogeological rehabilitation intervention, is today the wildest area of the Vittoriale Park, with its dense vegetation, the palm trees that peep out among the cypresses, the Acqua Pazza streams and dell’Acqua Savia that flow here in a sonorous waterfall, the stage-platform that enters the water, dominated by the bow of the Puglia Ship, and the audience sitting all around.
