Mori, l'Incantesimo di Sicilia - Musical Theatre Show

At the Palmento di Rudinì in Marzamemi, the legend of the Moor's Heads comes to life in a new guise. The show, written and directed by Gisella Calì with music and lyrics by Daniele Caruso, transports the myth to Sicily in 1916, within a large landed estate. Actors, singing, dance and stage action transform the ancient winemaking space into a narrative environment that envelops the audience. A story that weaves together history, folklore and musical theatre in one of the most evocative locations in the Syracuse area.
