Galileo e Scaramouche Foto di Luca Apicella
There are all the elements of a successful musical. “WE WILL ROCK YOU”, at its second edition until February the 2nd at the Brancaccio Theatre, stages the passionate history of Galileo and Scaramouche, set in an alienated future, directed by Michaela Berlini. The explosive thrust of the performance is the great love for music and freedom, looking for a disappeared rock, a kind of post-modern Holy Grail. Every age audience share with the protagonists, among emotions and laughs, the tale of hope about the salvific power of Rock and Roll, of sharing and the self expression right. “We will rock you” is a definitely maintained promise.

While the Gaga and the Bohemians fascinated for opposite reasons.
