Ballet: Madina
by Fabio Vacchi with Roberto Bolle on 22, 24 March; 1, 2., 16 April
Teatro alla Scala, Milan 2020-03-22 ... 2020-04-16
The Package
Music trip to Milan for 3 days / 2 nights with an exclusive program. The highlight is a visit to the famous Teatro alla Scala on the second evening to experience a magnificent performance in a world-famous environment with global stars.
The Ballet Madina will be presented for the very first time. Therefore, there is very little we can talk about yet. But with Roberto Bolle as star dancer and a libretto based on a novel with the title “The girl who did not want to die” we believe it will be a highlight of the season. Attention, Medina is a young Chechen with an explosive belt around his waist. The music will be played by the Teatro alla Scala Orchestra. The evening at La Scala including intermission will be 1 hour and 55 minutes. During the break, you can go to the Toscanini Foyer to enjoy a Spumante and to see and be seen.
The 3 day city trip includes the hotel in your selected category, a gourmet dinner on the evening of the first day, a private walking tour of the city with a guide in your language, a visit to the La Scala Museum, premium tickets for the selected event at the Teatro alla Scala, and an aperitif before the performance. The schedule and program have been well accepted by our clients and we receive many compliments. However, should you wish to adjust the program, to maybe have a different private sightseeing tour or rather spend the day shopping, add an excursion to Lago di Como, an excursion to Cremona to the Stradivari Museum, then please let us know. The itinerary can be customized to your needs.
The Story
Madina is a young Chechen who wears a belt filled with explosives. A woman who has suffered violence and fanatic suicide bomber are the ingredients of a thriller to unfold in front of your eyes. This theme is rarely tackled in ballet.
