Curio Theatre Company presents:

Sacco & Vanzetti: A Tragedia dell’ Arte

A World Premiere
Written and Directed by John Bellomo

In 1919, Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti, two Italian immigrants and anarchists, were arrested on suspicion of robbing a shoe factory and murdering the paymaster and a guard. Their trial and subsequent executions sparked worldwide protests due to concerns about bias against the defendants based on their political beliefs and immigrant status. Through the lens of commedia dell’arte, Sacco and Vanzetti: A Tragedia dell ’Arte, will highlight the absurdity of the case while being a comic foil for the tragic events of Sacco and Vanzetti’s lives.

Previews: April 1, 2, 3 at 8pm
Opens: April 4 at 8pm
​Runs: April 8 to 18 at 8pm
(Two matinee performances at 3pm)

Australian comedic trio Sooshi Mango will bring their iconic characters, sketches, musical moments, and humor to the Live! Event Center at Live! Casino & Hotel Philadelphia on Friday, May 1, 2026. Created by brothers Joe and Carlo Salanitri with Andrew Manfre, Sooshi Mango is one of Australia’s most successful comedy acts. ‘The Home Made World Tour” celebrates culture, family, and the hilariously relatable moments in between.

Join doll enthusiasts and certified 90s kids Jackie Soro and Pax Ressler as they rifle through their confidential childhood toy chests in GIRL DOLLS: The American Musical!

Presented in collaboration with The Bearded Ladies Cabaret and FringeArts, GIRL DOLLS is part tea party, part identity crisis—a deep dive into our country’s favorite doll franchise in search of the stories that got left out of the dollhouse. Through original songs, nostalgic PowerPoints, and serious research™ disguised as musical comedy, Jackie, Pax, and an all-star band rip open the seams of American girlhood to ask: What does your favorite doll reveal about your childhood trauma? Is Samantha Parkington a sleeper agent for the American Project? And most importantly: When everything else about America feels awful, why can’t we let go of their tiny doll hands? Bring your doll, and come ready to laugh, cry, and cringe our collective way down memory lane!

Disclaimer: This project is in no way affiliated with Mattel or the American Girl brand. We pinky-promise that it’s all totally legal!

Run Time: 75 minutes, no intermission.

This performance is recommended for audiences ages 12 and up.
