Have you ever read/seen "The Roman Spring of Mrs. Stone"? It is a Tennessee Williams novel turned film...Vivian Leigh and Warren Beatty did one version of the film. Anyway! Mom and I went to a Roman ballet interpretation of this novel. Interesting. The story itself is risque! Widower searches for companionship...male escort...falls for him but he really wants her money but he also cares for her! Crazy! Mom loved it! Very modern! Costumes were 50s style and a few scenes the dancers only wore teddies or tighty whities! All the old broads in the theatre were getting a show for sure! Hell, even the prima ballerina has to be in her late 50s. And the male lead was rubbing all up on her.
Overall I liked it! If you are in Italy/Rome and it's in production...go see something different! Have a great day!
