It is about to return Among villas and gardens. 25 continuous years of programming and shows. All the performing arts have intersected; great national and international music resonated in the squares of the small towns of Polesine; the theater of illustrious names and satirical monologues has stopped in the churchyards, and dance from all over the world has taken its steps on the steps of the Venetian villas. The now iconic traveling summer festival of live shows “Between villas and gardens” is back to celebrate its 25th birthday, an excellence of Polesine, promoted and supported by Province of Rovigo, organized with the operational arm of Ente Rovigo festival, and the artistic direction of Claudio Ronda. The presentation of the 2024 edition will take place on Tuesday 18 June, at 11.30, in the headquarters of the Province of Rovigo.
“25 years of Between villas and gardens, what a spectacle! The emotion continues…” is the claim of this 25th edition, which includes an artistic calendar of 17 events, in as many Polesine municipalities, from 2 July to 21 August. Twenty-five editions signify an indissoluble bond with the territory, which is expressed in combining art with the Polesine landscape and its peculiarities, but also in the stubborn public desire to offer important cultural proposals, at popular prices, to the widest possible audience.
“A review in which the popular and the cultured mix through the stories and tales of the numerous artists who have alternated in these 25 years – comments the artistic director Claudio Ronda – Programming attentive to changes and the relationship between tradition, modernity and innovation has always sought to create a dialogue between different generations and to provoke in the spectator a reflection on his own time”.
