Bass Marco Spotti will perform the role of Pistola, while tenor Francesco Lucii will appear as Fenton in Falstaff at the Teatro Petruzzelli from March 7 to 15, 2026.

The final masterpiece by Giuseppe Verdi returns to the stage in Bari with its brilliant blend of wit, elegance, and theatrical vitality. Inspired by Shakespeare’s The Merry Wives of Windsor and scenes from Henry IV, Falstaff stands as one of the greatest comic operas ever written, combining refined orchestration with extraordinary dramatic pacing.

In the role of Pistola, Marco Spotti joins the eccentric circle surrounding the unforgettable Sir John Falstaff, while Francesco Lucii portrays the young and romantic Fenton, one of the opera’s most lyrical and heartfelt characters. Together, they contribute to the lively ensemble dynamic that makes Falstaff a timeless celebration of humor, humanity, and musical brilliance.
