Gianmarco Mazzi, curfew and death sentence for shows

(ANSA) - ROME, APRIL 22 - "If a derogation is not provided, the cook-off at 10pm as established by the government is a death sentence for the live entertainment world. It is an illogical decision, so have the courage to tell us that remain closed ". Gianmarco Mazzi, administrator and artistic director of the Verona Arena, does not mince words, after the decision to confirm the curfew time and unlimited for a thousand people for now. The Arena had announced in the past few days that it was ready to leave safely up to 6 thousand attendances. "They haven't thought about it, I hope they'll lose their hand and head. This time we won't be silent." "I make a proposal: that the concert ticket, condata, name, start and end time of theevent can be valid as self-certification to go home after the show ends - adds Mazzi -. If we want to revive the sector we have to find a way to work. "For the CEO," there is no logical basis, there has been no in-depth analysis by the technicians. "The first event scheduled at the Arena is the concert-event de IlVolo, a tribute to Ennio Morricone, on 5 June, which will go indirectly on TV and from which a 60-minute special will also be extracted for the American Pbs. "If it is not possible to do it in presence, we will do it anyway, but it will be the right image to show in the world? And we will not be silent: if necessary, I, the mayor of Verona and maybe even Il Volo, will keep ourselves together, as Dario Fo invited me to do to assert his own reasons ", threatens Mazzi. (ANSA).
