La Boite Theatre in association with the Biennial Festival of Music presents
Emma Celebrazione! Emma Celebrazione!

Food to celebrate life, love and all things Italian!
'...a passionate feast. It mixes heart, head and uplifting spirit in finely balanced proportions.'
HERALD SUN

In 1939, when she was still a teenager, Emma Ciccotosto migrated to Australia from Italy. Now her granddaughter is getting married and Emma is preparing the wedding feast. In this life-affirming play she relives her memories of Australia and Italy while cooking up home-style pasta, mixing recipes and family disasters into a concoction containing the joys, triumphs and disasters of life for Italian-Australians.
Emma's story is supported by the rich earthy voices of the Brisbane-based Abruzzi Women's Choir, whose authentic provincial songs counter-point the authenticity of this delightful piece of theatre.
