Bruscello Poliziano
Mid-August – Montepulciano
The Bruscello Poliziano Festival takes place on the Cathedral Square in Montepulciano Piazza Grande.
A popular rural theater, typically Tuscan, with very distant origins, acted and sung by non-professional actors, it is a representation of epic-dramatic or farcical episodes of everyday life, created by popular imagination, literature or historic facts. It has been performed in one of the most beautiful open-air theatres in the world for over 70 years.
The theme, which mixes singing and acting, varies from year to year, subjects, texts and screenplay are all due to the creative spontaneity of the bruscellanti, a company that practices this genre for the sake of tradition and pleasure.
