Roberto Lipari's “C'ho ripensato” 2027 at Teatro Cilea, Reggio Calabria

Teatro Francesco Cilea · Reggio Calabria, Costa Viola, Calabria

22 January 2027

On Friday 22 January 2027 Roberto Lipari brings “C'ho ripensato” (“I've changed my mind”) to Teatro Francesco Cilea in Reggio Calabria, the show with which the Palermo-born comedian returns after “L'ultimo spettacolo” (“The last show”). The evening is outside the subscription package of Officina dell'Arte's “Cambio Stagione” season and raises money for charity: with the Rotary Club Reggio Calabria, the proceeds go towards buying vaccines for countries in need. Tickets on Ciaotickets cost €23 to €38. The box office gives a 9 pm start and the poster 8:45 pm, so check the time printed on your ticket. The show is in Italian.

Date, time and venue

The show is scheduled for Friday 22 January 2027 at Teatro Francesco Cilea in Reggio Calabria. The official sources disagree on the start time: the Ciaotickets sales page says 9 pm, while the poster and synopsis published by Officina dell'Arte say 8:45 pm. No third official source settling the question has been found.

Before the evening, check the time printed on your ticket and be at the theatre by 8:45 pm. The running time has not been announced. The show is outside the subscription package: season subscribers to Officina dell'Arte need a separate ticket. Like the rest of the season, it is performed in Italian.

“C'ho ripensato”: back after “L'ultimo spettacolo”

The official synopsis plays on his previous work: having announced his “last show”, Lipari returns to the stage with “C'ho ripensato” (“I've changed my mind”), a show mixing comedy, observation of everyday life and laughs that make you think. The programme and running order have not been published.

“L'ultimo spettacolo”, the monologue Lipari wrote with Ignazio Rosato, started from the question of what happens to a comedian on his last night on stage, and for the first time he talked about his own life. It was scheduled at the Cilea in Reggio on 6 May 2026, also with Officina dell'Arte, and at the Ancient Theatre of Taormina on 9 September 2026.

A charity night with the Rotary

The evening has its own title, “Ridere insieme per cambiare il mondo” (“Laughing together to change the world”), and is put on by Officina dell'Arte together with the Rotary Club Reggio Calabria, District 2102. According to the synopsis published by Officina, the proceeds will help buy vaccines for countries in need.

The poster carries the End Polio Now logo, the Rotary campaign to eradicate polio worldwide. The sources do not say what share of the takings will go to the campaign or mention other initiatives linked to the evening; for details, contact Officina dell'Arte or the club.
