Forte Company

Theatrum Mortis


Forte Company stage the death of Francesco Borromini in the form of a contemporary lyric opera based on 5 different interpretations of the tragic events that unfolded over the last evening of the great architect of Baroque Rome’s life, handed down to us from a text by his doctor and offered as a transcript of the words of Borromini himself. Did everything really happen that way? Gothic horror, sacred representation, as well as baroque and contemporary lyric opera mingle in the spaces of the Falconieri Palace- a space conceived and created by Borromini himself.
