The Nobel Prize-winning writer Dario Fo applies his inventive genius to Rossini`s comic opera in its premiere DVD release. Recorded in 2005 under the musical direction of Maurizio Barbacini, Fo`s production brings fresh vitality and colour to the story of Lisetta, and of her father`s attempts to find a husband for her through an advertisement in the newspaper La Gazzetta. Filmed using high definition cameras with multitrack sound.
