Giovanni Pernice is much more than a dancer: he is an artist who knows how to tell stories and convey emotion through movement, turning every step and every choreography into something that connects directly with the audience. Originally from Palermo, he wins over Italian viewers through his appearances on Ballando con le stelle, the Italian version of Dancing with the Stars, becoming one of the programme’s best-loved and most recognisable faces. His talent, combined with impeccable technique and an irresistible charisma, quickly makes him a true audience favourite and a leading figure for dance enthusiasts.
But behind the television persona lies a journey shaped by sacrifice, passion and sheer determination. Pernice’s career reaches far beyond the small screen, developing on an international stage through competitions, performances and collaborations with numerous celebrities. It is above all in England that the dancer builds a significant part of his professional experience, establishing himself as one of the leading figures in British television and theatre.
Now Pernice is, in a sense, returning to his roots and choosing to tell his story through dance with “Shall We Dance!”. The show brings his life and professional journey to the stage of the Teatro Sistina, offering audiences the chance to discover not only the dancer they already know and love, but also the artist behind the success.
The show features artistic direction by Massimo Romeo Piparo, with production by Il Sistina, bringing together storytelling, dance and entertainment to create an engaging and captivating theatrical experience.
On stage, four pairs of dancers, including Giovanni Pernice himself alongside his partner, reinterpret some of the most iconic Latin and ballroom dances with a contemporary touch. The performances are accompanied by live music, vocalists and a selection of great hits, turning the show into a vibrant dancing jukebox where music and movement come together to tell Pernice’s story.
