Tourists and residents of Rome alike were surprised and delighted yesterday morning as they witnessed a street performance staged by an unknown group. Four “nuns” dressed in shocking pink appeared in Piazza di Spagna and took a stroll through the city accompanied by two mounted “mounted police” likewise suited out in all pink uniforms.
The rose-colored group traveled from Piazza di Spagna to Via del Corso by way of Via Condotti – no doubt the employees and clients of the haute couture stores that line Via Condotti were pink with envy – and then continued down Via del Corso to Piazza del Popolo.
Who’s responsible for this delightfully colorful parade remains a mystery, though Rome’s daily newspaper La Repubblica posits that the event may be a mini flashmob staging, a type of viral marketing, or very petite demonstration.
