Curio Theatre Company presents: SACCO & VANZETTI: A TRAGEDIA DELL’ ARTE

Curio Theatre Company presents the world premiere of Sacco & Vanzetti: A Tragedia dell’Arte, a bold new work written by, directed, and starring John Bellomo. Blending political history with the heightened physicality and archetypes of commedia dell’arte, this original production revisits one of the most controversial trials of the 20th century through a sharply theatrical lens.

Sacco & Vanzetti: A Tragedia dell’Arte reframes this historical injustice through the stylized conventions of commedia dell’arte, exposing the absurdity of the case while underscoring the deeply human tragedy at its core. Mask, movement, satire, and sharp physical comedy serve as both shield and spotlight, revealing how spectacle and bias can distort justice.

The production runs approximately 90 minutes with no intermission. Recommended for ages 13 and up due to themes of murder and crime.
