In 2020 CI.T.T.À DOLCI presents seven theatre and music appointments from August 23rd to October 18th.

Friday, September 18th at 9:00 pm the Park of Villa Gnecchi in Cologne will host the play Alfonsina Strada, a race for emancipation.

Alfonsina is the daughter of peasants and of a time that she did not choose: the early 1900s. A time when cycling is for fearless heroes, inevitably male. Alfonsina is a ten-year-old girl when she falls in love with the bicycle. She is a little girl when she secretly trains on her father’s bike. She is a woman when she becomes a champion. But above all, Alfonsina is a SCANDAL. Because she lives in the Italy of a hundred years ago. In this Italy, Alfonsina invents and builds her own destiny, unhinging preconceptions and conventions and participating – the only woman in history – in the Giro d’Italia.

The admission is free of charge. Booking is mandatory via website or by telephone +39 030 291592 – +39 339 291592. The reservation is valid up to 10 minutes before the beginning of the show.
