About Commedia Castellana
Theatre on the steps
Commedia Castellana is the theatre review that enlivens the summer of Marostica (province of Vicenza, Veneto) by bringing open-air performances to the Scalinata dei Carmini, one of the most evocative settings in the historic centre. The steps are transformed into a natural auditorium for evenings of brilliant and authorial theatre, in an intimate and cosy atmosphere.
Quality companies and direction
The event, organised by the association Teatris APS, offers curated productions each year, with texts from the best contemporary dramaturgy and high-level direction. The open-air performance takes place in the evening and, in case of rain, is moved indoors to the Oratorio Don Bosco Theatre.
A classic of Marostica's summer
Commedia Castellana is now a well-established event in the cultural calendar of the Municipality of Marostica, capable of combining the quality of theatre with the beauty of the walled town's urban setting.
