We are pleased to announce that Fabio Marazzi, Senior Managing Partner, and Riccardo Samiolo, Managing Director, compose as founding members the Honorary Committee for the International Promotion of the La Fenice Theater in Venice.

The committee, created on April 1st, 2022, and chaired by the General Manager Andrea Erri, exists to support the long-term artistic and financial success of this historic theatre. Of central importance to Venice and its cultural heritage, Teatro La Fenice is a great source of local pride that enjoys international renown as a theatre that celebrates the traditions of opera and actively participates in the continuing evolution of the art form.
