Dopo di Noi is a moving and thought-provoking production set against the breathtaking backdrop of the Teatro Antico di Taormina. Blending powerful storytelling with evocative music and striking stage imagery, the performance explores themes of legacy, responsibility, and what we leave behind for future generations. The title, meaning “After Us,” suggests an intimate reflection on family bonds, social ties, and the fragile balance between past and future. Through compelling performances and a carefully crafted atmosphere, the audience is invited to engage emotionally and intellectually with the narrative. In the unique open-air setting overlooking the Sicilian coast, Dopo di Noi becomes more than a show—it becomes an experience shaped by history, culture, and shared humanity.

Teatro Antico di Taormina
Ancient theatre of Taormina
Description
The ancient theatre (the teatro greco, or "Greek theatre") is built for the most part of brick, and is therefore probably of Roman date, though the plan and arrangement are in accordance with those of Greek, rather than Roman, theatres; whence it is supposed that the present structure was rebuilt upon the foundations of an older theatre of the Greek period. With a diameter of 120 metres (390 ft) (after an expansion in the 2nd century), this theatre is the second largest of its kind in Sicily (after that of Syracuse); it is frequently used for operatic and theatrical performances and for concerts. The greater part of the original seats have disappeared, but the wall which surrounded the whole cavea is preserved, and the proscenium with the back wall of the scena and its appendages, of which only traces remain in most ancient theatres, are here preserved in singular integrity, and contribute much to the picturesque effect, as well as to the interest, of the ruin. From the fragments of architectural decorations still extant we learn that it was of the Corinthian order, and richly ornamented. Some portions of a temple are also visible, converted into the church of San Pancrazio, but the edifice is of small size.
