LINA SCAVIZZI (ASCOLI PICENO, 1898 – ?)
She made her debut in 1919 at the Teatro La Fenice in Venice as Giorgetta in Il Tabarro. The following year, she performed at the Teatro Comunale in Cesena as Francesca in F. Zandonai’s Francesca da Rimini, a role that became one of her signature performances. In 1924, she embarked on a highly successful tour of Australia. In 1927, she reprised the role of Francesca at the Teatro Carlo Felice in Genoa, partnering with Giulio Crimi and Carmelo Maugeri. That same year, she performed in Switzerland as part of Max Sauter’s opera troupe. She retired from the stage in the early 1930s.
