Created and directed by Antonello Falqui, it was conceived by Falqui during a trip to the United States he made with the then RAI president Sergio Pugliese, and was inspired by Broadway theatre and by Fred Astaire and Ginger Rogers' musical films.[2] For this reason, together with Don Lurio and a young Gino Landi, longtime Fred Astaire collaborator Hermes Pan was chosen as choreographer.[2] The show has been described as 'characterized by a perfect equilibrium between comical sketches, songs, ballets and guests'.[1] During the show Kesslers and Don Lurio launched the song "Da-da-un-pa".[1] Bruno Canfora served as conductor in all the editions of the show.[1]
C'era una volta Studio Uno ("Once upon a time Studio Uno"), a television miniseries inspired by the show, was broadcast in 2017; it stars Alessandra Mastronardi, Giusy Buscemi, Diana Del Bufalo and Edoardo Pesce as Falqui.[4]
