Two of the Twin Cities artistic treasures, Bradley Greenwald and Steven Epp are working on an English language adaptation of Giacomo Puccini’s comic opera, GIANNI SCHICCHI. GIANNI SCHICCHI is a one-act opera, the third and final part of Puccini’s IL TRITTICO, based on an incident mentioned in Dante’s DIVINE COMEDY. A farce where greed and hypocrisy face off against first love and old friendship set on the deck of a tricked-out yacht anchored off the coast of Miami.

This winter, Theater Latté Da is further developing JOHNNY SCHICCHI with a cast of 10 actors in virtual workshops as part of our NEXT UP new works initiative.

Development Sponsor: Jane and Ogden Confer in honor of Jim and Kris Matejchek
