Ranucci brings the journalist behind Report to the stage

On Saturday 24 October 2026 the Francesco Cilea Theatre in Reggio Calabria hosts "Diario di un trapezista" (Diary of a Trapeze Artist), a stage piece featuring Sigfrido Ranucci, the well-known host of the investigative journalism programme Report. Away from the television spotlight, Ranucci brings a personal, intense narrative to the stage, built around the lesser-known episodes of his professional and private life. The Reggio date is part of a national tour that during 2026 has visited theatres from north to south.

Tickets and times

Tickets for the Reggio Calabria date are on presale through TicketOne, at the usual outlets and through authorised circuits, as for the other tour dates. The show is outside the season subscription: it is not included in the Cilea season passes and requires a single ticket.

Prices by seating area and the start time should be checked on the event's TicketOne page and at the theatre box office, as the announcements released in September did not state them consistently. With a single date in the city and a widely followed performer, it is best not to leave it to the last few days.

The investigations, the risks, the people met along the way

Starting from the major investigations carried out for Report, the show moves through encounters, choices, risks and decisive moments that have shaped Ranucci's career. Unexpected figures take shape in the telling: ordinary people, witnesses, occasional collaborators and marginal presences who, at crucial moments, helped make some of his most important investigations possible.

The "trapeze artist": between courage and fragility

The show's title captures the evening's tone: on stage emerges the "Sigfrido trapezista", suspended between information and danger, courage and fragility, public life and private self. An account of what often stays off screen, restoring the human, complex side of investigative journalism, away from the usual narrative tied to his television role.

Cast and production

On stage Ranucci is joined by the voice of Stella Gasparri. The production is by Teatro Carcano and Mismaonda, which are touring the show in Italian theatres.

Teatro Cilea and the "Cambio Stagione" season

The show opens the off-subscription events of the "Cambio Stagione 2026-2027" season at the Francesco Cilea Theatre, curated by Peppe Piromalli for Officina dell'Arte: fourteen appointments spanning comedy, theatre, music and new talent, with nine subscription shows, three off-subscription events and two special events.
