Travelers to Italy should be aware of the Florence International Theater Company
Important historic cities aren't noted for their nightlife. And the multitudes of young travelers descending on such places as Florence, Italy, usually congregate in bars at night for want of anywhere else to go. The result is public drunkeness, litter, noise that keeps whole neighborhoods awake, and an increasing demand by residents of Florence, Rome, Prague, and the like, to crack down on the boorish behavior of young tourists.Which is why it's important to alert your Italy-bound friends or relatives about the Florence International Theater Company that presents provocative new plays, in English, on most of the nights in high season. At www.florencetheatre.com/en, you'll see a listing of productions planned for the remainder of 2007 (Harold Pinter's Betrayal, Sam Shepherd's True West, Yasmina Reza's Art, Memories of the [Florence] Flood, Sewers of L/vov, Agnes of God) and much other useful information for enjoying both a rewarding and entertaining evening during a stay in the heavily-visited Florence.
