Teatro Ristori in Verona has unveiled its rich and diverse 2024–2025 artistic season, promising over fifty events that span various arts, musical genres, and formats. The season will feature traditional theater evenings, themed events, and off-site happenings in exceptional locations, creating a delicate mosaic of innovation and classicism.
The 2024–2025 artistic program will feature prominent international jazz artists, with season-opening and closing performances by big names like Hiromi and Ray Gelato in Verona for the first time. Additionally, the season will showcase dance and auteur evenings, bringing renowned artists to this modern theater in Verona. Notable performances include Machine du Cirque from Quebec and Germany’s Familie Flöz, known for their unconventional storytelling.
Returning for its third edition is the Ristori Baroque Festival, celebrating 17th and 18th-century music as a universal language. This year’s festival will include evocative pieces like “The Four Seasons,” exploring themes of time, madness, human passions, and water in music. Baroque influences will also be present in numerous “off” events spread across the city in unique settings.
As in previous years, the upcoming season will maintain a strong focus on educational initiatives, with events designed for families and younger audiences. Then, throughout December, Teatro Ristori will become a center of culture and conviviality. For the third year in a row, the eagerly awaited dinner shows are making a comeback, combining exceptional artistry with delightful gastronomy.
The Christmas season will be celebrated with performances by Neri Per Caso, the traditional gospel choir JP & the Soul Voices from California, and the spectacular acrobat-equilibrists, the Black Blues Brothers. The New Year’s concert will also return, inviting audiences to celebrate the arrival of 2025 at the theater. On the afternoon of the first day of the new year, I Virtuosi Italiani will enchant the audience with the delightful and vibrant atmosphere of Vienna.
