The New York Times notes in “With Turturro, Italy Knows No Bounds,” that the actor John Turturro directed and acted in “Fiabe Italiane” (”Italian Folk Tales”). The production, on tour last month in Torino, Napoli, and Milano, featured “…minstrels, two overlapping stories, [and] layers of language (English, Italian, Western Lombardian, Sicilian, Neapolitan, Piedmontese, Abruzzese).”
