You cannot miss “The Ancient Tradition of Pulcinella”… Pulcinella as you have never seen before!
The original, authentic and inimitable Neapolitan Pulcinella. Five centuries of Neapolitan puppets melt together to give birth to the work of Gaspare Nasuto: the timbering of puppets finely carved in walnut and cherry-tree wood, the precise handling of the puppet show, the use of the swizzle (“pivetta”) and the movement's fine art make the shows of Gaspare Nasuto (one of the most important authors and players of Pulcinella's mask in the world) full of strong emotion and magic.
