 In 2008, the company toured Verdi's "Un giorno di regno" ("King for a Day").In Clarke's broad English adaptation, the story is moved to post-war Italy around the reign of Umberto II, infused with elements of organised crime, and political humour is added.One reviewer commented that the production "makes up for what it lacks in "bel canto" elegance by being a riotously funny, enormously enjoyable evening's entertainment".
