Description

St Mark’s, the Doge’s Palace, the Rialto bridge, the Grand Canal: it’s a dream, we’re in Venice! But for Johnny, fourteen years old, and Masako, a Japanese girl he met on the bus, the adventure is about to begin. An elegant gentleman, with a white wig, suddenly appears to be their guide in an extraordinary visit. The mysterious figure is Carlo Goldoni, famous eighteenth-century playwright and acquainted with all the secrets of Venice. He shows the two young friends through his city in his time: they discover the Ghetto and the gondola workshop, the splendor of the Bucintoro and the horror of the Pozzi, the aristocrats at the gambling house and glass blowing artists, a stage performance in the open and the shipyards of the Arsenal. And there is also time for a typical snack and a cup of chocolate. A truly different Venice thanks to such an exceptional guide!
