Description

A leap into the past that will inspire you to be an actor in a touching play and take you into the heart of the Serenissima Republic with a guide who will accompany you through the labyrinth of mystery that is the city, in the footsteps of Casanova.

 

Listen to the tales of the historical 'Codega', the servants who lit the way for wealthy families, telling anecdotes along the way in centuries past.

 

Follow the actor-guide of the renowned Pantakin theatre company to explore this tradition and discover the infinite mysteries and legends hidden in the Venice Lagoon: you will be taken to unusual and secret places, far from the chaotic bustle of Carnival.

 

The actor will take you to the heart of the Venetian Carnival; you will get to know the gondolier who became a priest, the elephant who found refuge in a church...

 

A fascinating tour for the whole family: an unusual and fun way to celebrate the Venice Carnival!
