Rome, Jul 15 (EFE) .- (Camera: Álvaro Padilla) The Rome Opera is to kick off its summer season on Thursday tomorrow with the famous Rigoletto melodrama by Giuseppe Verdi directed by Daniele Gatti's baton and with the brilliant scenery of Damiano Michieletto, already put to the test in the final rehearsal.FOOTAGE OF THE REHEARSAL.SOUNDBITES OF TENOR IVÁN AYÓN.Translation:"We could say that this new production is a bit strange. We're used to physically interact with the characters and get close. Maybe, in the role of the Duke, play with the hands, tough Magdalena or some extra, or a dance, things we are used to doing in these kinds of operas we can't do, we always have social distancing, but hat I like is that the 'regista' has taken this into consideration and we have worked to keep our distance and we have had a good result, very nice result."
