Young Talents on Stage

A showcase for the young talents of the Roman coast

Young Talents on Stage is the evening that the Teatro del Lido di Ostia dedicates to the performances of emerging young artists from Municipio Roma X. In just one night, the municipal theatre stage opens up to those taking their first steps in the world of performing arts, offering a concrete opportunity to gain exposure to audiences in the Ostia district and across the entire Roman coastline.

Theatre, music, and dance on the same stage

The event's format is multidisciplinary: throughout the evening, theatre, music, and dance alternate, creating a blend of styles that highlights the variety of artistic offerings. The festival is curated by Flavio Cangialosi and Paolo Oppedisano, who select emerging local acts and craft a programme that brings together different experiences and sensibilities, ranging from theatre workshops and bands to dance troupes and young companies.

A community theatre

The Teatro del Lido di Ostia is a cultural hub deeply rooted in the social fabric of Municipio X. As part of the Teatri in Comune network of Rome, it provides a space for local youth to freely express their creativity. Young Talents on Stage was born from this very vocation: it is not merely a show, but a moment of connection between generations of artists and between the theatre and its city.

Ostia and the Roman context

Located in the heart of the Lido di Ostia, overlooking the sea just a few kilometres from the centre of Rome, the theatre serves as an important cultural landmark for the coastal quadrant of the capital, in the Lazio region. This evening of young talent is part of the broader seasonal programme supported by cultural initiatives promoted in Rome, helping to make Ostia not just a seaside destination, but a living centre of artistic production.
