The show, a production of the Teatro di Napoli – Teatro Nazionale, was held during the Christmas period at the Teatro San Ferdinando, Eduardo's historic home.
Origins and Meaning of Gennareniello
“Gennareniello” was created in 1932, a year after the one-act play “Natale in casa Cupiello”. Unlike its predecessor, the piece never developed further, remaining a unique and isolated work. The title of the work is a diminutive that caresses the name of the patron saint of Naples, recalling its more famous brother, the opera “Casa Cupiello”. This short work, although simple and natural, offers a slice of life that highlights the beauty and fragility of everyday moments.
A Return to Tradition
During the performance, you can hear verses of poems and songs, elements that often intertwine in Naples. “Gennareniello” manages to capture the essence of humanity and life through a discreet and poetic narration. Recorded in December 2024 at the Teatro San Ferdinando in Naples, the show promises to bring the Neapolitan theatrical tradition into the homes of spectators.
