Flamenco & Salt is back

A tribute to Maria Callas
The show about Maria Callas will be on the evening of November 23 at 8:00 pm at the Municipal Theater. “Sfogato” will be an intimate show that shows us a vulnerable woman, harassed by the press and admirers, but also a capital artist, limitless and invincible, as is typical of a Sfogato soprano.
Maria Callas was one of the most famous sopranos in the world. Countless articles and books have been written about her, films and documentaries have been made about her, and yet the mystery of her life continues to fascinate. She was everything in art and lost it through love and heartbreak. Passion was her driving force: passion for art, passion for love.
With the only company of Bruna, her housekeeper and perhaps the person who was closest to her intimacy, Maria reveals some of her secrets, those that filled her with life and those that led her to a tragic death at the young age of 53.
The show, featuring the talented Mabel Del Pozo, Anabel Maurin and Eva Marco, will also feature beautiful musical numbers inspired by the operas on which Maria Callas sang.
