“It needs to be updated”
Mar 2020
It is a famous and historical theater of Rome, located in Via Sistina, not far from Piazza Barberini and its metro station. It was inaugurated in 1949 as a cinema-theater on a design of the architect Marcello Piacentini. Its shape and style refer to a hall (28 meters wide and 30 meters deep) without columns and other structures, which allows the public to view the show from every order of seats. It is rather beautiful, but it's getting old and needs some urgent updating. The seats are rather uncomfortable and small, and really too close one to another one. It's time for a change.

The area
Address
Neighborhood: Colonna
Frantic fashionistas, pedicured politicos, goal-oriented tourists, and on-the-go locals cross paths every day in Colonna, a delightful chaos in the very center of the city. Even though it has some of the city’s loveliest sites—a 2nd century column, Belle Epoque shopping center, and a magnificent Baroque parliament building—Colonna is not just another pretty face, but the cosmopolitan eye of Rome’s cultural storm. Colonna can safely say it has the best of Rome: museums, boutiques, window displays, restaurants, cafes, and people watching.

Billy Elliot at Teatro Sistina
Oct 2015 • Couples
I've seen Billy Elliot in many countries and there're only two countries I went back for a second show: Iceland and Italy (except for the original West End version in London which I've seen countless times)

They have found two very talented boys to play Billy, Simone and Alessandro,
Christian was playing Michael was one of the funniest boy I've seen in the role.

Remarkable piece of work
Aug 2012 • Family
Michaelangelo's finest paintings are a joy to behold. Stay a long time and don't be put off by the crowds. Make sure you have a guide to the ceiling (Fodor's Italy book provides an excellent detailed analysis). Stunning...although the rest of the Vatican Museum was also excellent.
