PULCINELLA VENDICATO
A Baroque Marionette Opera from Naples
by Carter Family Marionettes with live musical ensemble and professional opera singers
April 23 - May 2, 2010

After decades of delegation as a beloved side-kick in a vast array of the Carter Family's performances, Pulcinella has finally demanded a starring role in their 11th marionette opera, Pulcinella Vendicato! Giovanni Paisiello's musical composition of this popular libretto by Francesco Cerlone was received with universal pleasure by audiences of Naples during the Carnival festivities of the 18th century, but has never before been seen in North America. The Carter Family Marionettes are joined by esteemed Music Director, Margriet Tindemans and a top-notch ensemble of musicians and singers to stage the very first U.S. production of this farsa per musica. Don't miss this rare opportunity to witness a cast of hand-carved marionettes in comical scenes of magical genies, transformations, wild antics, and ultimate true love!

Directors: Christine and Stephen Carter
Music Director: Margriet Tindemans
