Facts and practical information

The "Delia Cajelli" Social Theater, also once called the Little Scala of Busto Arsizio, is one of Busto Arsizio's theaters, dating back to the late 19th century.

On August 21, 1890, the Società anonima del teatro sociale was founded, strongly desired by Cavalier Giovanni Candiani, who had died almost three years earlier in 1888. The charter of this society was signed by such Candiani, Crespi, Gambero, Introini, Marinoni, Milani, Pozzi, Provasoli and Tosi in the presence of notary Carlo Prina.
