The story, taken by the Memories of Casanova, tells about the
life of the young Casanova
from the death of his father when he
was a little child since his escape from the Venetian prison.
The life of Casanova, a magnificent fresco of the cosmopolitan
and libertine life of the XVIII century,
is narrated by an actor
while opera singers and the orchestra perform arias and music by
Vivaldi, Bach, Mozart, Haendel .

Actors, acrobats and dancers recreate the atmosphere of
Venice and Istanbul,
from the magic palace of a pasha where
Casanova had a homosexual affair
since the lively and exciting
golden age of the Carnival of Venice, when the famous libertine
had a love adventure with a nun, Maria Maddalena,.
The music play has been represented with success in theatre and
in historical palaces,
thanks to its setting composed only by
stage elements and by the sumptuous costumes created by the
Atelier Tiepolo.
