Popular theater history brief from the Commedia dell'Arte to the present day, through the fascinating story of the founding of the Piccolo Teatro by Giorgio Strehler, Paolo Grassi and Nina Vinchi. We will accompany you in front of the three current locations of the Piccolo Teatro in Milan, telling you how after World War II from a Fascist torture room was born... a theater! All narrated by two art comedians who, amidst history and anecdotes, will bring to life for you real masquerade sketches and parts of the historic play "Harlequin Servant of Two Masters."

"We do not believe that theater is a mundane habit or an abstract homage to culture. Theater remains what it was in the intentions of its creators: the place where a freely assembled community reveals itself to itself: it hears a word to be accepted or rejected. For even when spectators do not realize it, this word will help them make decisions in their individual lives and in their social responsibility."
