The New Year’s Eve marked by theatre: that is one of the novelties of the New Year’s Eve 2007/2008 in Venice: a coordination among the initiatives of the theatres of Venice and Mestre – Toniolo, Goldoni, Fondamenta Nuove – in order to offer the citizens and tourists an optimal arrangement of the shows.
The objective of such initiative – says the responsible for the theatre and shows area of the Town Hall of Venice, Angela Fiorella – is to start up a coordinated action to offer shows in the town, which will assure citizens and tourists of the high quality of productions and an optimal distribution of performances.
And there will really be shows for all tastes:  Whilst poetry will be on the stage at Goldoni Theatre in Venice with the show ‘Bufaplanetes, Poetry in a bubble!’, planned for the evening of 31st December at 9.00 p.m., with a repeat performance on the 1st January at 4.00 p.m. and at 6.30 p.m. Written, directed and interpreted by Pep Bou and proposed by Pantakin Association, Bufaplanetes is a poetry game which takes soap bubbles as its starting point in order to evoke a magic planetary of brilliant colours joining an extravagant humour. In the end, joining the tradition of the concerts of the first day of the year, Theatre Fondamenta Nuove will present, on the 1st January at 6.00 p.m., “Happy New Ears – the other concert of the New Year’s Day”, with the quartet Doppelmoppel, namely two guitarists and two trombonists representing one of the most meaningful and innovative groups of the European jazz.
