Opera House in Siracusa: Teatro Massimo -work in progress

via Roma

Many people ignore that Siracusa, in the splendour of Ortigia, has an interesting Opera House.

Built at the end of the XIX century , since early 1930'ies it has been not working anymore.

Good news recently!

WE visited the Opera house a few weeks ago and this time ( after past failed announcements) they said that it could be ready in a couple of months.

I WANT to believe it now.

prevoius old material?

Tranquillity, harmony, genuinity.. this are the things coming to my mind when I was there The name Busulmona , which is the name of all that area,comes from the Arabic and means the land of sun.... an extraordinary view from the stone terrace on the Val di Noto, from Noto to Vendicari and Marzamemi... . for further information : www.busulmona.com
