A classic of popular comedy

The show is a classic of traditional and popular comic theatre, combining comedy, pace and human observation. It is a genre that lives on stage timing and on the recognisability of its human types, and that stands or falls on the strength of its lead performer.

Padre Paolo and his parish

At the centre is Padre Paolo, the priest of a small village, called on daily to deal with the gossip, weaknesses, small deceptions and family tensions of his parishioners. Good-natured but firm, he tries to restore balance and common sense to the community, only to find himself caught in a series of misunderstandings and unexpected revelations.

Guarneri and Milazzo's direction

In the title role, Enrico Guarneri gives a performance that alternates comic verve with moments of deep humanity. Plinio Milazzo's direction brings out the text's contemporary relevance and the comedy's pace, delivering a lively and accessible show. The Teatro Cilea is at Corso Giuseppe Garibaldi 325, Reggio Calabria.
