The interview of the month

Sara Angelucci and Caterina Ciacci took part in the PCTO project organised by the Liceo Classico T. Mamiani in collaboration with the ROF. We asked them a few questions.

How did you enjoy your experience at the ROF this summer? What will you take away from this experience?
I think this experience at ROF has been a wonderful opportunity for me. First of all, I think it is an interesting project to introduce young girls and boys to the labour market in an engaging and interactive way, but most importantly in a healthy and creative environment. Therefore, through a stimulating approach to a new reality, being part of this experience has made me grow as a person and made me more responsible and independent. Moreover, all this gave me the opportunity to an interesting confrontation with the public and the organisation of the Rossini Opera Festival, which made me feel very welcome. From this path I will certainly take with me the musical and theatrical culture that I was able to learn during the various days of the ROF and the memory of the pleasant evenings spent (S.A.)
The experience was extremely positive and far exceeded my expectations. I had the opportunity to meet many people who were not only highly professional but also incredibly welcoming and helpful. They welcomed me warmly, stimulated me with their expertise and made me feel truly valued. They remain in my heart because of the human and professional impact they had on me. (C.C.)

How have the ROF multimedia proposals in the ROFUp! box been received by the audience?
In my opinion, I can confirm that the ROF multimedia proposals were received with great enthusiasm by the audience. All age groups were involved and were happy to experience the different multimedia projects. So the feedback was generally positive and the ROF’s proposals were very much appreciated. (S.A.)
All the proposals received enthusiastic feedback from those who tried them. The virtual reality glasses were particularly successful, and were so popular that several people came back to relive the experience and share it with friends and family. (C.C.)

3. How will you tell your colleagues about the ROF?
I will definitely tell my peers about the ROF as a wonderful experience. I will talk about a festival with a magical atmosphere, whose first aim is to surprise the audience and make them feel at home. In fact, Rossini’s theatre unites, brings together and moves everyone, whatever their age or part of the world. I am going to tell you about a festival that strives to bring young people closer to the wonderful world of theatre, and that improves and renews itself year after year. (S.A.)
I will undoubtedly describe it as an experience not to be missed, both for those who, like me, are already familiar with the world of theatre and, perhaps even more so, for those who have not yet had the privilege of discovering it. It is an exceptional opportunity to come into contact with a fascinating universe, rich in enchanting music and populated by extraordinary people. (C.C.)
