Cosetta Colla

On the 3rd of May 2012, an encounter with an historic puppet company, long established protagonist of Milanese theatre, was held in the Amici della Scala offices. With the title “Cosetta Colla: wooden creatures, life companions”, Amici della Scala offered their audience a fairy tale: that of the magic world of string puppets. It was narrated by Cosetta Colla, the very creator of that world as well as artisan, actress, puppet operator and passionate supporter of our Association. Here we see some images of the evening, as well as others taken during the presentation of the monographs dedicated to the performing artists at La Scala (Gae Aulenti, Cecil Beaton e Renzo Vespignani). Held on the 16th of May 2011, the extraordinary puppet Company also participated on that occasion.
