Marcello Cirillo and Demo Morselli and his orchestra bring to the stage at Trianon Viviani, in its national premiere, «You Want to be an American. Italian Stories in America», Friday, March 22nd, at 9:00. This theatrical work by Massimo Cinque plays with a title by Carosone to tell the stories of the American dream of Italian emigrants in the twentieth century, with the direction and vocal interpretations by Cirillo, under the musical direction of Morselli. About 40 million Italians, with cardboard suitcases and lots of hope, dreamed of making a fortune in America from the early twentieth century to the '60s.

Many of them or their children became relevant figures (Madonna, Sinatra, DeNiro, Scorsese, Mancini, Capra), realizing their dream: the “American dream”. With the participation of actress Francesca Borrelli - explain Cirillo and Morselli - «we tell a fairy tale with its happy ending, populated by human characters, accompanied by a dog and a seagull and marked by nostalgia for their homeland, the hope for a better life, and the encounter with new cultures and traditions». An emotional musical tale that unfolds between classics like Torna a Surriento, ‘O sole mio, ‘O surdato ‘nnammurato, and Santa Lucia luntana, or Caruso by Dalla.

Flo returns to Trianon Viviani, Saturday, March 23rd, at 9:00, with the new recital «The Song I Owe You in Music. A Tale of Pages and Songs». The singer-songwriter recounts the adventurous, light, and melancholic time of adolescence, with the gallery of characters and situations that gave life to her homonymous novel. Flo thus accompanies the audience on a small journey of growth that, starting from the Naples of Maradona and smuggling, reaches the Biennale, from Paris to Mexico City. Accompanying Flo are guitarists Ernesto Nobili and Federico Luongo, Francesco di Cristofaro on flutes, accordion and baglamas, and cellist Arcangelo Michele Caso.

«Via Napoli» is the journey of Lino Cannavacciuolo through five centuries of Neapolitan music, at Trianon Viviani on Sunday, March 24th, at 8:00.
