This production explores the story of TITO as a film set drama:
Welcome to Capital Rome Film Studio. It’s the 1930’s and we are in the midst of filming a Mozart drama set in the 1770’s, starring everyone’s favorite Diva, Vitellia, directed by the hottest director in town, Tito. Opening night is approaching and the studio is a buzz on whom Tito will be taking as his date to this highly anticipate opening night.

Creative Team: Joseph Colaneri (Conductor), Edward T. Morris (Set Designer), Macy Lynne (Costume Designer), Gary Echelmeye (Lighting Designer)
