In this week’s episode we heard an amazing story. A story from the time of World War 2 in Abruzzo, Italy, a story of a family helping out another family who had lost everything and how this generosity was never forgotten. These two families were destined to cross paths again, many years later in Melbourne, Australia.

We were told this incredible story by our guest Emilio Ricciuti, an Italian Australian based in Melbourne. Emilio is a talented performer, dancer and entertainer and is the creator of Ela Rose Studios. The studio offers unique workshops, dance classes and more. In our chat Emilio told us about something very special happening at Ela Rose Studios- the Ciao Show- 'a true story of an Italian Immigrant coming to Australia.' The show premieres 12th October and has already completely sold out, so be sure to follow Ciao Italia Experience and Ela Rose Studios on Instagram for details of future shows- see links below.
