About This Adventure
Experience a spine-chilling Halloween at Palazzo d’Arco on October 31st! Navigate the dimly lit halls with only a flashlight, encountering eerie performances by actors and students in terrifying costumes. Meet ghosts, monsters, and witches, culminating in a delightful “trick or treat” in the garden. Costumes are encouraged for this unforgettable night!
Si spengono le luci e calano le tenebre nella notte più paurosa dell’anno. Siete pronti a percorrere il palazzo come non lo avete mai visto? Riuscirete a mantenere la calma alla sola luce di una torcia?
Venerdì 31 ottobre dalle ore 19.30 Halloween è a Palazzo d’Arco in compagnia degli attori e degli studenti della Scuola di Teatro dell’Accademia Teatrale “F.Campogalliani” che si esibiranno durante il percorso con le loro performance e travestimenti spaventosi.
Preparatevi ad evocare gli spiriti del passato, ad incontrare mostri, vampiri, fantasmi e streghe che attraverseranno il vostro cammino e che vi divertiranno con le loro incursioni.
Attraverserete le sale della dimora e giù nel buio della notte passando per scale mai viste.
Il percorso, adatto sia agli adulti che ai bambini, sarà condotto a lume di torcia nei diversi ambienti e si concluderà in giardino con il famoso “dolcetto o scherzetto?”. E’ gradito il travestimento.
Costo: 10 euro
