“Whatever Rosalba might not do, she cheers things up! Avanti!
Avanti, signora! The Mediterranean island of Sirene promises to be a quiet paradise for the beautiful Rosalba and her lover Aurora following World War One. But their tranquillity is soon shattered when other extraordinary women arrive to pursue their own dreams, and the island explodes into song, dance, laughter – and tears!
Compton Mackenzie‘s beloved 1928 comic novel bursts onto the stage for the first time with a glorious score by Tony Award winner Sarah Travis and lyrics by Richard Stirling. This is a joyous, musical celebration of women who dare to live
a life more extraordinary!
