A show that is both ancient and contemporary, based on old Venetian horror legends, featuring acting, live music, dance and circus acrobatics.

An ancient show.

Because it draws on the 19th- and 20th-century tradition of horror theatre, the Grand Guignol, with short, bloody one-act plays.

Because it combines various artistic disciplines, much like the ancient Venetian Renaissance performances known as ‘momarie’.

A contemporary show.

Because it revisits, reworks, recovers and reimagines ancient urban legends.

Because the live music is the dark-wave of multi-artist Numa Echos.

Because the acrobatics are performed by artists from P. Orfei’s Piccolo Circo dei Sogni.

Because the dances are the burlesque of Crazy Cat.

Because the performers are from the Compagnia de Calza ‘I Antichi’.
