Made in Italy

Enjoy a memorable evening of entertainment with Made in Italy at Theatre Calgary! Farren Timoteo’s Made in Italy is back for an encore performance, after playing to a sold-out run at Theatre Calgary in 2023! Timoteo brings his 25+ characters to life in his one-performer comedy about family, tradition, and food. In this tour-de-force solo show, Francesco, a young Italian immigrant and his father, Salvatore, recall their experiences in 1970s Jasper, Alberta. A semi-autobiographical tale, Made in Italy is a comedic chronicle of the generational differences in an immigrant family. Holding dear the traditions of Italy, Salvatore hopes to pass them on to his son, while Francesco finds new role models in Italian cultural icons Rocky Balboa and John Travolta. This is your chance to laugh-out-loud as you enjoy a delicious taste of humour and heart that was Made in Italy. Travellers can also enjoy a pre-show meal by visiting one of the many nearby restaurants on Stephen Avenue.
