Reading in Italian
When Books Become Performance
This week, we have a special treat! A performance inspired by Le Favole al Telefono by Gianni Rodari will be brought to life by Ignazio Chessa and his team.
It promises to be a fun and engaging experience, with time after the show for the audience to explore and interact with the props. And the best part? The phone is red!
We’ve been reading Rodari’s books in our Reading in Italian sessions, making this event an especially exciting opportunity to see his stories come alive.
Audiences of all ages are warmly invited—there’s something for everyone to enjoy.
Children between the ages of 6 and 12 are invited to take part, accompanied by an adult, in a series of weekly reading sessions in Italian, created and led by Malina Mannarino.
Each session will focus on a specific theme and will include:
- Readings from Italian children’s literature;
- Guided discussions;
- Creative, hands-on activities to enrich the storytelling experience.
When: Every Saturday at 10:00 AM
Where: Italian Cultural Institute of New York
It is not possible to make multiple reservations with the same email address.
