Napoli Milionaria | Napoli Get’s Rich
June 6 @ 6:00 pm – 9:30 pm EDT
War-torn Naples, 1942. Bombs fall, ration cards disappear, and one unstoppable Neapolitan matriarch turns her cramped apartment into the city’s most unlikely black-market empire. Coffee, cigarettes, American stockings, if it’s scarce, Amalia Jovine has it, and the money pours in faster than Allied tanks.
But when poverty suddenly flips into wealth, laughter turns to chaos. Family secrets erupt, morals go missing, and everyone discovers the bitter truth: getting rich in wartime always comes with a price no one wants to pay.
Eduardo De Filippo’s masterpiece is a rollercoaster of belly laughs and heartbreak, a hilarious, deeply human Neapolitan classic that proves survival is the ultimate hustle.
“Sparkling, savage, and utterly human. A comedy that made post-war Italy laugh through its tears.”
Grab a seat and discover why Napoli Milionaria! remains the funniest tragedy (or the most tragic comedy) you’ll ever see.
