Palazzo Roma Theatre Season
The prose and music festival of the White City
About Palazzo Roma Season
The Palazzo Roma Theatre Season in Ostuni
In the heart of the White City, the Palazzo Roma Theatre Season is Ostuni's winter appointment with live prose and music, in the province of Brindisi. Promoted by the Municipality of Ostuni in collaboration with Puglia Culture (the regional theatre circuit of Puglia), the festival runs throughout the cold season, from late November until the beginning of spring, offering the public a rich and varied programme.
The Teatro Palazzo Roma
Performances are held at the Teatro Palazzo Roma, at 41 Via Francesco Tanzarella Vitale, an elegant and welcoming venue in the centre of Ostuni that combines a theatre hall, cinema, and lounge. Every year, the stage hosts great performers of Italian theatre and music, in a schedule designed for a diverse audience: prose enthusiasts, comedy lovers, and fans of singer-songwriter music.
Prose, music, and social theatre
The festival's formula alternates prose—brilliant comedies, monologues, and adaptations of great classics—with music evenings that explore artists, genres, and eras of Italian song, often in the form of concert-shows with narration. There is also a focus on social theatre and memory, capable of transforming an evening at the theatre into a moment of reflection. Shows usually start at 9:00 PM and can be enjoyed either by purchasing single tickets or through subscriptions dedicated to prose and music.
Ostuni, the White City
Going to the theatre in Ostuni means experiencing an evening in the most famous village of the Upper Salento, with its maze of whitewashed alleys and the cathedral dominating the hill. The Palazzo Roma Season is an important part of the city's cultural life and one of the theatrical benchmarks in the province of Brindisi and Puglia, capable of attracting spectators from neighbouring towns as well.
