About Teatro Grattacielo’s last three decades
Successful productions of rare and forgotten operatic gems such as Mascagni’s Guglielmo Ratcliff, Montemezzi’s L’Amore dei Tre Re, Giordano’s La Cena Delle Beffe, and Spontini’s historic Italian version of La Vestale are some highlights of Teatro Grattacielo’s past years, to name a few. The company’s dedication to excellence and musical authenticity has earned recognition from audiences, critics, and artists alike. Under new leadership since 2020, Teatro Grattacielo has expanded both its repertoire and boundaries, gaining international acclaim and creating collaborations with prominent arts organizations, implementing the robust educational programs Creative Tableaux, and experimenting with innovative performance techniques. In 2024, Teatro Grattacielo celebrated its 30th Anniversary Season with the world premiere of an American opera, Beyond the Horizon by Nicolas Flagello, which was very well received by the New York press.
