Description

Written in 1819 but not staged until more than a century later due to its provocative themes of incest and parricide, this tragic tale was long deemed unfit for the stage. Set in Rome in 1599, it revolves around the harrowing true story of Count Francesco Cencis murder at the hands of his tormented daughter, Beatrice. Join us as we delve into this gripping narrative of betrayal, vengeance, and the dark complexities of familial bonds. - Summary by Jake Malizia
