"THE ADVENTURES
OF
DON GIOVANNI AND HIS SERVANT PULCINELLA"

A comic opera based on a 16th century Neapolitan Commedia dell'Arte manuscript, the play features the hilarious shenanigans of Pulcinella, his fiancee "Ricciulina", a servant who falls instead for his master Don Giovanni, and the servant Arlecchino, Ricciulina's brother, who favors his sister match with the wealthy Don Giovanni rather than Pulcinella. As in the opera, Don Giovanni is punished in the end when he meets a ghost (giant puppet) and he's taken to hell by the devil in a "dance macabre"

This opera is featured at the CARAMOOR workshops, where children are inviteed to join singing and dancing the Tarantella with the "irresistible" Ricciulina.
