New season 2016 of the Como’s Teatro Sociale
The title chosen to present the new season of the Teatro Sociale di Como is in itself a whole program: TRANSFORMATION ‘There is nothing immutable, except the need for change’. A Heraclitus’ quote that reminds us how the transformation and the need to change must be a stimulus in everyone’s life thanks to art.
