Artistic direction and Plautine comedies
Under the artistic direction of Girolamo Angione and Irene Mesturino, the Compagnia Torino Spettacoli has staged numerous comedies by Plautus, including Miles Gloriosus, Mostellaria, Aulularia, Casina, Rudens, Menaechmi and Trinummus, in a path described as the rediscovery and modernisation of masterpieces of ancient theatre [1][2].

In November 2026 Girolamo Angione, together with Gian Mesturino, curates the new production «L'Imbroglione», based on Plautus's Pseudolus and set in the atmosphere of the 1920s, blending Art Nouveau touches with jazz and swing sounds [1][2].
