Silvio Berlusconi

Silvio Berlusconi is at the centre of plans for a large-scale Broadway-style musical about his own life. Image consultant Gasparotti revealed the project, saying the former Italian premier asked him for maximum confidentiality and had already prepared a stage design. Italian media are picking up the story of the would-be 'prince charming' musical.

Milan Malpensa airport has been officially named after Silvio Berlusconi, the late former Italian prime minister and media tycoon who died in 2023. The renaming honours one of Italy's most influential and polarising political figures, and reactions have been divided between tribute and criticism of his legacy.
