The programme will bring several popular Italian performers to Trapani, including Francesca Reggiani, Andrea Perroni, Iva Zanicchi, Martina Colombari, Ornella Muti, Giovanni Esposito and Flora Canto.
The season opens on Thursday 8 October with Francesca Reggiani and her new show "Titoli di testa". Monologues, impressions and satire are used to take an ironic look at contemporary society, social media, fast-paced news and the contradictions of everyday life.
On Thursday 5 November, Andrea Perroni takes the stage with "Meglio dal vivo", a show combining comedy, music and improvisation. It explores the increasingly close relationship between real life, social media and artificial intelligence, with live comedy at the heart of the performance.
On Thursday 17 December, the Ariston hosts "Viva la mamma", a musical comedy starring Iva Zanicchi, Milena Miconi, Samuel Peron and Diego Ruiz. Music, dance and misunderstandings come together in a show dedicated to the Italian family and, in particular, to the figure of the mother.
The first show of the new year takes place on Thursday 28 January, with Martina Colombari, Gianmarco Crò and Federico Maria Isaia in "Venerdì 13". The comedy plays with superstition, coincidences and human relationships, alternating humorous moments with more reflective ones.
On Thursday 25 February, Ornella Muti comes to the Ariston with "L´invisibile che c´è", a play by Antonio Grosso directed by Enrico Maria Lamanna. The performance explores emotions, relationships and everything that often remains hidden behind appearances.
Thursday 25 March is dedicated to Neapolitan comedy with Giovanni Esposito and Nunzia Schiano in "Benvenuti in casa Esposito", based on the novel by Pino Imperatore and directed by Alessandro Siani. The comedy approaches themes such as family, legality and the desire for redemption with humour and lightness.
On Thursday 15 April, Francesco Fanucchi presents "Tutto sbagliato", a stand-up comedy show with a direct and irreverent style, taking a sarcastic and provocative look at contemporary life.
The season concludes on Sunday 9 May with Flora Canto and "Me la canto e me la sogno", a show combining comedy, music and autobiographical storytelling, with stories about relationships, motherhood and everyday life.
All performances are scheduled to begin at 9:00 pm. Cine Teatro Ariston is located at Corso Italia 4, in Trapani city centre.
General season-ticket sales began on 7 September, while tickets for individual performances will be available from 1 October 2026. Different subscription options are available, including a seven-show package and a formula including the optional eighth performance, "Venerdì 13".
