Scampolo is a young girl on the threshold of womanhood, living on the harsh streets of early 20th century Rome. Her introduction into the life and social circle of an impoverished engineer with dreams of having his Libyan railway project accepted by the Italian government raises quite a few eyebrows, along with uncomfortable questions regarding the hypocrisy of the bourgeoisie. Poetic Justice is proud to present the first English production of this quirky, poignant and beautifully written Italian romantic comedy which marks the centenary of Niccodemi's novel and subsequent play, Il Romanzo di Scampolo written in 1916.| 19 Apr 16 to 1 May 16 | The Rosemary Branch Inner London, Greater London Performance Details => Venue archive |
